## CPU

Geekbench was skipped because this plan has less than 2 GB of RAM, which isn't enough for Geekbench 7 to run without swap.

## Memory, TLS and scheduler

### Memory bandwidth (STREAM)

| Test | Result | Runs | Spread |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Copy higher is better | 45.3 GB/s | 3 | 1.6% |
| Scale higher is better | 38.3 GB/s | 3 | 1.28% |
| Add higher is better | 40.2 GB/s | 3 | 3.41% |
| Triad higher is better | 40.5 GB/s | 3 | 2.43% |

Average of 3 runs. Spread is the standard deviation as a share of the average.

### TLS and crypto (OpenSSL)

| Test | Result | Runs | Spread |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| RSA 4096 signs higher is better | 731/s | 3 | 1.28% |
| RSA 4096 verifies higher is better | 18,953/s | 3 | 6.02% |
| SHA-256 higher is better | 1.1 GB/s | 3 | 1.61% |
| AES-256-GCM higher is better | 17.6 GB/s | 3 | 3.06% |
| ChaCha20-Poly1305 higher is better | 5.12 GB/s | 3 | 1% |

Average of 3 runs. Spread is the standard deviation as a share of the average.

### Scheduler latency (schbench)

| Test | Result | Runs | Spread |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Request latency, median lower is better | 3.43 ms | 3 | 0.587% |
| Requests per second, 90th percentile higher is better | 296/s | 3 | 1.56% |
| Request latency, 99.9th percentile lower is better | 6.68 ms | 3 | 4.29% |
| Requests per second, average higher is better | 279/s | 3 | 0.7% |

Average of 3 runs. Spread is the standard deviation as a share of the average.

## Network

### IPv4 transfer speed

Loading...

| Target | Protocol | Send | Receive |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Clouvider, London, UK (10G) | IPv4 | 942 Mbps | 981 Mbps |
| Eranium, Amsterdam, NL (100G) | IPv4 | 963 Mbps | 978 Mbps |
