the classic ones will flag up alerts if the cpu sits at high usage for a sustained period of time. it's happened to mine plenty of times

as the title says..

Which one is more lag free?

Option 1:
Core™ i3-2130, 2core, 3.4 GHz+, 8 GB

Option 2:
OVH VPS Cloud 2, undefined CPU, 4core, Undefined freq, 4GB

We'll be having total 6-8 players with vanilla server no plugins whatsoever, everyone playing quite a lot, building stuff and exploring like mad.

the server will be CPU intensive.
