## 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 | 51.4 GB/s | 3 | 2% |
| Scale higher is better | 43.7 GB/s | 3 | 4.32% |
| Add higher is better | 46.7 GB/s | 3 | 2.77% |
| Triad higher is better | 46.3 GB/s | 3 | 0.874% |

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

### TLS and crypto (OpenSSL)

| ChaCha20-Poly1305 higher is better | 5.83 GB/s | 3 | 0.414% |

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 | 2.79 ms | 3 | 0.439% |
| Requests per second, 90th percentile higher is better | 359/s | 3 | 0% |
| Request latency, 99.9th percentile lower is better | 5.01 ms | 3 | 3.87% |
| Requests per second, average higher is better | 347/s | 3 | 1.1% |

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