3am local time here and now you remind me that I have lots of garbage I need to clean up, but I'm thinking about the whiskey
Hi @FrankZ -- AMAZING results
Thank You for sharing this, and I hope you enjoy your new 7950X VPS. We are also looking forward to expanding out this product line to additional locations, very soon.
P.S. No doubt that YABS is certainly gaining in popularity lately (especially with so many running it around this time of the year), and a lot of spinoffs of the script on Github too, etc which use the same public iperf3 test servers. Definitely a great script for I/O and CPU related tests. Though in my opinion, a better network speedtest for the meantime would probably be a network oriented speedtest script, such as:
curl -sL network-speed.xyz | bash -s -- -r naPAGE 238!!

@Xrmaddness That's the spirit
Sometimes you just have to laugh at yourself because you are so silly.
Hi @MrEd -- Good stuff, and happy to hear you're pleased with the new performance overall. We're happy to double your bandwidth on it, for extra peace of mind if desired.
With regards to YABS network results, I addressed this in an earlier comment here: https://lowendtalk.com/discussion/comment/3754191/#Comment_3754191
For any VPS around this time of the year, whether that be with us or another provider, I probably wouldn't give too much weight on the network related sections of the YABS script. It certainly is a fantastic tool for measuring Disk I/O and CPU related results (as those sections are not dependent on any external factors), but for network, its coded based off external, public iperf3 servers that have gotten embedded/incorporated into so many benchmarking scripts/spin-offs on Github over the years. Not to mention, all the folks testing from those iperf3 test servers (be that from YABS or any other spin-offs) around this time of the year, with many Black Friday VPS deployments etc.
Network is always an interesting subject, since the results also depend on the performance and congestion of the remote destination (in this case, the iperf3 servers). The only real way to accurately measure network speed is to set up your own dedicated iperf3 server where there is no congestion or other factors at play. Though I realize that isn't always convenient or possible. For the meantime, I've found the below script by @sh97 to be a better representation of actual network speeds to expect in the real world:
curl -sL network-speed.xyz | bash -s -- -r naMore bandwidth never hurts!
You're all set, thank you for sharing this.
I'll take that free double bandwidth
