VPS Benchmark Database - Compare Performance Across Providers
Browse our comprehensive VPS benchmark database featuring real performance data from leading cloud providers. Filter by provider, location, price range, CPU cores, and RAM to find VPS instances matching your requirements. Compare Geekbench CPU scores, disk IOPS, network bandwidth, and performance-per-dollar ratios to make data-driven hosting decisions.
Understanding Benchmark Metrics
CPU Performance
Geekbench scores measure single-core and multi-core CPU performance. Higher scores indicate better performance for compute-intensive tasks. Typical scores: 800-2500 (single), 1500-10000+ (multi). Learn how we test.
Disk Performance
IOPS (Input/Output Operations Per Second) measures disk performance. Higher IOPS values indicate faster storage for database and file operations. NVMe SSD: 20,000+ IOPS, Traditional SSD: 5,000-15,000 IOPS. View testing details.
Network Performance
Bandwidth tests measure upload/download speeds and latency. Important for applications requiring high network throughput or low latency. Recommended: 500+ Mbps for web hosting. See methodology.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I use the VPS benchmark filters to find the best VPS?
Use the provider filter to narrow down to specific VPS providers you're interested in. Filter by location to find VPS instances near your target audience for better latency. Set price range filters to match your budget, and use CPU/RAM filters to find instances meeting your resource requirements. Sort by Geekbench score for CPU performance, IOPS for database workloads, or bandwidth for network-intensive applications. You can also use our comparison tool for side-by-side analysis.
What does the Geekbench score tell me about VPS performance?
Geekbench measures raw CPU performance using our standardized testing methodology. Single-core scores (typically 800-2500) indicate performance for single-threaded applications like WordPress, while multi-core scores (1500-10000+) show performance when using all CPU cores for parallel processing. Higher scores mean faster processing. Compare scores across providers to find the best CPU performance for your budget.
What are IOPS and why do they matter for VPS selection?
IOPS (Input/Output Operations Per Second) measures how many read/write operations your VPS disk can handle. Higher IOPS (10,000+) is critical for databases, file servers, and I/O-intensive applications. NVMe SSD VPS typically delivers 20,000+ IOPS, while traditional SSD offers 5,000-15,000 IOPS. Low IOPS causes slow database queries and poor application performance. Learn more about how we test disk I/O performance.
How should I interpret network bandwidth benchmark results?
Network bandwidth measures data transfer speeds in Mbps or Gbps. Upload bandwidth affects how fast you can send data to users, while download bandwidth impacts data ingestion and backups. For web hosting, focus on upload speeds (500+ Mbps recommended). For data processing or backups, download speed matters more. Consider latency for real-time applications. View network performance statistics across all providers.
Can I compare VPS benchmarks across different providers?
Yes! All VPS benchmarks use standardized testing tools (Geekbench, FIO, iPerf) running under identical conditions, ensuring fair comparison across providers. You can directly compare Geekbench scores, IOPS values, and bandwidth metrics between any providers in our database. This helps you identify the best performing VPS regardless of provider. Use our comparison tool for detailed side-by-side analysis.
Why do VPS benchmarks vary by location for the same provider?
Different data center locations use different hardware generations, network infrastructure, and resource allocation. A provider might use newer CPUs in their US locations versus EU locations, resulting in different Geekbench scores. Network routing also affects bandwidth tests. Always benchmark the specific location you plan to use. Our dashboard shows performance variations across locations.
How do I find the best value VPS using benchmark data?
Calculate performance-per-dollar by dividing the Geekbench score or IOPS by monthly cost. For example, a VPS with 2000 Geekbench score at $10/month gives 200 points per dollar, while 1500 score at $5/month gives 300 points per dollar - making the cheaper option better value. Use our filters and performance dashboard to find the sweet spot between performance and price. Return to home page for quick stats.
What benchmark metrics should I prioritize for web hosting?
For web hosting, prioritize single-core Geekbench score (most web requests use single cores), IOPS for database performance (aim for 10,000+ for MySQL/PostgreSQL), and upload bandwidth for serving content to users (500+ Mbps recommended). Multi-core scores matter less unless you're running background jobs or processing tasks. Learn more about our testing methodology and what each metric means.
How often are VPS benchmarks updated in the database?
We continuously add new benchmarks and re-test providers when they upgrade infrastructure or announce hardware changes. Each benchmark result shows the test date, allowing you to verify data freshness. Most major providers are re-tested quarterly or when significant changes occur. You can filter by recent benchmark dates to see the latest performance data. Learn more about our team and process.
Can I request benchmarks for specific providers or have questions?
Yes! We welcome provider suggestions and benchmark requests. Contact us with your requests or questions about our benchmarking process. You can view detailed benchmark results by clicking any row in the table. Each benchmark detail page shows comprehensive performance metrics including Geekbench scores, FIO results, UnixBench data, network tests, and hardware specifications.
How to Interpret VPS Benchmark Results
When comparing VPS benchmarks, focus on the metrics most relevant to your workload. For web hosting and content management systems like WordPress, prioritize single-core Geekbench scores (most web requests are single-threaded) and IOPS for database performance. For application servers handling concurrent requests, multi-core Geekbench scores become more important. Network bandwidth matters most for media streaming, file downloads, or API-heavy applications. Learn more about our comprehensive testing methodology.
Use the filter options to narrow down VPS instances matching your requirements. Filter by provider to compare offerings from specific vendors, by location to find VPS near your target audience (reducing latency), and by price range to stay within budget. CPU and RAM filters help you find instances with adequate resources for your application's base requirements. Check our performance dashboard for quick statistics and top performers.
Comparing VPS Performance Per Dollar
The best VPS isn't always the fastest - it's the one offering optimal performance for your budget. Calculate value by dividing benchmark scores by monthly cost. For example, a VPS scoring 2000 in Geekbench at $10/month provides 200 points per dollar, while one scoring 1500 at $6/month offers 250 points per dollar, making it better value despite lower raw performance. Use our VPS comparison tool to analyze up to 3 plans side-by-side.
Remember that benchmark results can vary slightly between test runs and may change when providers upgrade infrastructure. Check the benchmark execution date to ensure you're viewing recent data. Click any benchmark row to view comprehensive details including all test metrics, hardware specifications, and historical performance data for that specific VPS instance.
