DigitalOcean vs. Linode vs. Vultr

Byadmin•2014-08-02 07:42:30•1150Views

I have a simple performance benchmark for the low end SSD VPS today, to be fair, I choice 1 Core and 1G RAM VPS. I used sysbench for CPU and RAM benchmark and dd for SSD benchmark .
and OS is Ubuntu 14.04 x64

  • DO: 1 Core, 1G RAM, 30G SSD, 2TB Transfer, $10/month , Location: NY1
  • Linode: 1 Core, 1G RAM 24G SSD, 2TB Transfer(40Gb in, 125Mb Out), $10/month, Location: Newwark
  • Vultr: 1 Core, 1G RAM, 20G SSD, 2TB Transfer, $7/month , Location: New York / New Jersey

CPU Benchmark 

 sysbench --test=cpu --cpu-max-prime=20000 run

DO: 95 percentile: 3.55ms, execution time (avg/stddev): 36.3341/0.00
Linode: 95 percentile: 3.08ms, execution time (avg/stddev): 30.3259/0.00
Vultr: 95 percentile: 2.49ms, execution time (avg/stddev): 23.9573/0.00

Result: Vultr > Linode > DO

RAM Benchmark 

 sysbench --test=memory --memory-total-size=1G run

DO: 1024.00 MB transferred (298.25 MB/sec), execution time (avg/stddev): 2.5804/0.00
Linode: 1024.00 MB transferred (236.58 MB/sec), execution time (avg/stddev): 3.2671/0.00
Vultr: 1024.00 MB transferred (232.06 MB/sec), execution time (avg/stddev): 3.3333/0.00

Result: DO > Linode > Vultr

SSD Benchmark 

 dd bs=1M count=512 if=/dev/zero of=test conv=fdatasync

DO: 536870912 bytes (537 MB) copied, 4.23069 s, 127 MB/s
Linode: 536870912 bytes (537 MB) copied, 0.585573 s, 917 MB/s
Vultr: 536870912 bytes (537 MB) copied, 0.705237 s, 761 MB/s
Result: Linode > Vultr > DO
