Chicagovps, the $1 for a 2gb vps. I just had to buy it. Currently acting pretty good:

Wow.. he asked people to test in early 2012.
@ishaq Did wonder why @Aldryic was commenting in here...

Now you silly folks realize that the Cachfly speed test file is a total piece of CRAP, right?
It is bogus.
The file compresses like 90%+
Download it and zip or gzip it to prove the point.
That sort of fraud file gives you bullcrap speed test data and is NOT indicative of throughput.
Doesn't ServerBear already list most of these results?
@pubcrawler that is irrelevant if the file is not server over https. I get no faster speeds from cache fly than I do any other website at home.

Buyvm LV - but I understand there still setting up the location and fixing errors, So this this status isn't accurate.

Dacentec - Was at 25kb/s with a full dedicated server on a 1Gbit port so I really wouldnt be bother to wait the estimated 3 Hours for it to finish as my home connection is better.
Agree, It doesn't seem to reliable
CacheFly is rubbish, from Cloud Shards Texas VPS:

Your better of doing a FreeVPS benchmark to find speed across different locations to get something more realistic.
