Endurance Results

Number of tasks executed per hour

This is the average number of iterations the VPS executed every hour over 24 hours.

A higher number means the VPS is faster.


Coefficient of Variation of number of tasks per hour

The coefficient of variation represents the stability of the VPS performance over the course of the test. It's the standard deviation divided by the mean number of iterations per hour.

A lower number indicates better stability.


CPU Steal

This is the average proportion of CPU that is "stolen" by the hypervisor. A lower performance can often be explained by cpu steal running over 1%.

A higher number means the VPS host may be overallocated.


CPU idle

This is the average proportion of CPU left idle during the test. It simply serves to verify that the target 50% cpu usage was reached.
