I'd say Leaseweb, but I've heard that BREIN has been forcing them to close some trackers, so yeah.

I'd also go with 4GB ram.
yayyyyyy

users means nothing...

peers makes the difference... like scc vs sct ;)

anyhow, your coder should be able to address you to the hardware needed... hosts... better is to go east.... (malaysia..?)

He don't have much experience with trackers. Thats why I'm requesting this information here.
Well, i think the tracker would have about 1000 pers, for now.

Thanks for your help guys :)

Piradius maybe?

Moxie Communications?

Both host numerous trackers, so they could also advise you as to what HW you'll need.
forthat

I would rather have both lol

no good having a safe tracker if your pages take minutes to load and no one comes back. especially a new tracker.

It's generally a bad idea to host any kind of tracker in North America.

USA is a no no

Canada is fine (atm)

Sweden is fine atm

Malyasia is fine atm

Not many other places are though unfortunately, or they will be fine, but connection will be dire to Europe and North America. (and bw really expensive)

Maybe this only affects peers and not the hosts of the tracker but it'd be safer to not be there because things don't look good for Swedish pirates at the moment.

hows Mexico? :D

Im from Mexico and i was thinking in this. I'm totally sure it would be totally safe. The only problem here are speeds :S

go for your top host. he should have enough speed for a medium/small tracker i think? and if speed really becomes a problem. you might be able to use some kind of caching solution(a squid proxy in hmmm USA that caches your site's most viewed pages...etc etc... so the public will access the USA site most of the time for browsing at stuff..)
