Test Results
- Sysbench tests are run once at the end of each trial. They push the VPS to its limit but for a few minutes only.
- Remote timings are collected continuously from 4 different continents.
- The Web performance test lasts for the whole duration of the trial (several days) and reports the response time and system metrics of a popular website running a Ruby on Rails application backed by a Postgres database.
- Endurance performance tests push the VPS CPU to its limits for several hours straight and will reveal the raw power of the VPS as well as its stability over time.
- Network Transfers measure download and upload speed between the VPS and servers located nearby.

Network Transfers
We have performed large file transfers from the UpCloud - 4GB 2 cores VPS, both downloads and uploads and we measured the speed of the transfers.
The transfers involve multiple files, 10 threads and last for at least 10 seconds at maximum speed. The transfers are repeated 3 times from different servers and only the fastest transfer is reported.
