IONOS Recent Trials
VPSBenchmarks runs several performance trials on cloud servers every week. For each trial, VPSBenchmarks buys the VPS, sets it up and then runs the performance tests.
Each trial consists of
- Web tests to measure latency and capacity of the server,
- Network Transfer tests to measure the real bandwidth available to the server,
- Sysbench test to measure CPU, memory and storage performance,
- Endurance test to measure the stability of the server performance over an extended time period
- and Yabs.sh tests: Geekbench, Iperf3 and fio.
