CPU

Version Single-core Multi-core
Geekbench 7 1,024 Skipped Geekbench Browser

Multi-core was skipped because Geekbench 7 needs about 3.1 GB of free memory to run 2 threads, 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.

k6 with a fixed number of virtual users, 60 to 62 s per level, after a 21 s warmup. The error rate counts responses that weren't a 200. Discourse ran with 4 app workers and 256 MB of Postgres shared buffers, what its installer picks for a 2 GB box. It added a 2 GB swapfile first, the way its installer does, and used up to 356 MB of it. The container peaked at 1,487 MB.
