VPS network community test !
Hello,
Well, Just got a nice idea to get some network info on the VPS's you have ! and to share the info here so that we can have a DB or something with all this info in it.
Run wget on this :
http://cachefly.cachefly.net/100mb.test
or
wget http://cachefly.cachefly.net/100mb.test
and reply here with :
VPS Provider Name : (Name of provider goes here) VPS Location : (Location of VPS goes here) wGet Output : (Wget Output goes here)
Please use pre tag when posting the wGet Output,
Thanks !

you sure about that? how about 100mb.test file?
Well, since i only have Linode for my VPS. here's the result :
VPS Provider Name : Linode, LLC
VPS Location : Fremont, CA
VPS Provider Name : LoomHosts
VPS Location : Dallas, TX
My routes are pretty slow to Cachefly, and this isn't really the highest speed it can go to for some reason.
Gonna put up some BuyVM / other results soon.
@Mon5t3r : Hmm.. I'll change it to 100 MB, Thanks for pointing that out, Your VPS is fast !
@Boltersdriveer : It's not slow, I would be happy with that speed

VPS Provider Name : ComfortHost (SpotVPS Ultimate 2GB Package)

Sorry, but another one of this boring posts...
It's spamming time
VPS Provider Name: BuyVM
VPS Location: Fremont CA
not really, i think there's something wrong with the network today, my linode is always in 100mbps port not 1gbps. and also when i downloading 4 Centos, 2 Debian, 4 Ubuntu iso file i get around 50-80 MB/s in my NL server. and that is in 100mbps port too.
VPS Provider Name: ThrustVPS
VPS Location: East Coast (Don't got more info)
Maybe they are using SolusVM 1.8.02? Read here: http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=1098081
Linode use they own control panel, and my NL server is Dedicated not VPS. it's weird.
U need to use -O /dev/null to get accurate results
Ah... Another one:
-O just moves the file directly to the nirvana instead of writing it to disk. I cannot see how that should affect the result of the network speed.
@edgarhoover: It wouldn't account for the hard disk I/O at the time
Linode UK..
CHVPS
Switzerland
Virtuozzo Vps
Migrating to this SolusVM vps
If your box has slow I/O, the download speed may get reduced
Same is true for /dev/null if the box has high load. But I guess we can leave this micro-possible percentage out of sight.

Thanks @maxexcloo ¬_¬
well, the main idea of this thread was to make a db of the data posted here... I know there are many threads like this.
IMHO is useless. You can do a DB about what kind of port you get with a provider/plan but you can't be sure of getting the same results always with a provider. Sometimes you will get 60MB/s and sometimes 5MB/s. Reasons, a lot.
Also, as @sleddog says sometimes. Why test incoming speed when the most important thing is outgoing traffic?
And to finalize my trolling about this. Cachefly is a trap (crap?). Sometimes you get the fastest mirror at 2 or 3 hops in the same datacenter. Then your speed will be great, but just to cachefly... lol.
hmmm.. that is true.
