[How this works](https://rackcensus.com/transparency#referrals-heading) ## CPU | Version | Single-core | Multi-core | Result link | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Geekbench 7 | 1,266 | Skipped | [Geekbench Browser](https://browser.geekbench.com/v7/cpu/723789) | Multi-core was skipped because Geekbench 7 needs about 2.1 GB of free memory to run 1 thread, and this server didn't have that much. Single-core needs much less, so it still ran. Scores from different Geekbench versions aren't comparable with each other. Charts only use Geekbench 7. ### Geekbench 7 workloads | Workload | Single-core | Multi-core | | --- | --- | --- | | File Compression | 1,40931st of 100 | Single-core only | | Navigation | 1,47525th of 100 | Single-core only | | HTML5 Browser | 1,13744th of 100 | Single-core only | | PDF Viewer | 1,33837th of 100 | Single-core only | | Photo Library | 1,13940th of 100 | Single-core only | | Clang | 1,14341st of 100 | Single-core only | | Text Processing | 1,06745th of 100 | Single-core only | | Asset Compression | 1,23838th of 100 | Single-core only | | HDR | 1,02946th of 100 | Single-core only | | Photo Editor | 1,38339th of 100 | Single-core only | | Ray Tracer | 1,36424th of 100 | Single-core only | | Structure from Motion | 1,39138th of 100 | Single-core only | | Game Physics | 1,33926th of 100 | Single-core only | | Video Encoder | 1,22831st of 100 | Single-core only | | Audio Encoder | 1,31536th of 100 | Single-core only | | Video Player | 1,36533rd of 100 | Single-core only | Rank among the 100 runs with Geekbench 7 workload scores. Bars are relative to the best run. Geekbench doesn't run every workload multi-core, so some rows only have a single-core score. ## Disk | Block size | Read | Write | Total | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 4K | 31.8 MB/s (8,148 IOPS) | 31.9 MB/s (8,163 IOPS) | 63.7 MB/s (16,311 IOPS) | | 64K | 399.1 MB/s (6,385 IOPS) | 401.2 MB/s (6,419 IOPS) | 800.3 MB/s (12,804 IOPS) | | 512K | 381 MB/s (762 IOPS) | 401.3 MB/s (802 IOPS) | 782.3 MB/s (1,564 IOPS) | | 1M | 378.5 MB/s (378 IOPS) | 403.7 MB/s (403 IOPS) | 782.3 MB/s (781 IOPS) | fio random read and write, 50/50, run by YABS against the boot disk. ## Network ### IPv4 transfer speed Loading... | Target | Protocol | Send | Receive | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Leaseweb, NYC, NY, US (10G) | IPv4 | 1.07 Gbps | 1.07 Gbps | | Eranium, Amsterdam, NL (100G) | IPv4 | 1.01 Gbps | 1.02 Gbps | | Leaseweb, Singapore, SG (10G) | IPv4 | 552 Mbps | 817 Mbps | Public iperf3 servers vary in capacity and availability.
