I am using Host Gator and I think their iNode limit on VPS is ridiculous. Why claim to have unlimited disk space only to use some other method of limiting users.
We have bumped into 250,000 inode limit at bluehost and now are running into the 1,000,000 inode limit at Host Gator. We are paying $74/ month for the Host Gator VPS, but they are forcing us to pay $175 to get around the limit (requiring dedicated server).

If a dedicated server has unlimited inodes, then shouldn’t a VPS have unlimited divided by n? As far as I know, unlimited divided by a number is still unlimited.

Hello Brent. The 50,000 inodes have already been stated there for some time.

It’s true that it’s stated so but it’s stated there “may potentially” only. Also it is worth noting that all usage after 50,000 inodes will be removed from their auto backup system to avoid over usage.

So I believe Hostgator take the 50,000 inodes as a benchmarking to remind users to put an eye on the files that consume spaces. Because according to them, often time the files that consume up spaces are those junk and spam mail that reach in those unattended mail box. I guess their act is to encourage users to check from time to time to clean up unnecessary files to avoid traffic jam among users.
