This probably won't last, the servers aren't fully loaded with VMs yet.


I regularly get 3-5gbit on their regular cloud servers to consumer ISPs. They definitly don't overbook their vms regarding bandwith.


For comparison, here's an AWS a1.large instance (2cpus, 4GB ram) YABS benchmark I just ran

Jikes. Why is the hdd read so bad? 6 MB/s. Six?


It's gated by the default IOPS limits, you'll note the larger block sizes have a considerably better throughput.

You can increase the IOPS, and thus the throughput for 4k operations, but at a cost, of course:

4k block size, it's IOPS limited. No surprise there.



Huh, odd. I opened the URLs twice and got temporarily banned by hastebin. Thank you for the benchmark though. Very nice numbers.


Yeah also got some odd behaviour from the site.

Host wasn't my choice...just sharing the links


They've also been removed, can you please reup them?
