Here's some results from my TorqHost Xen container.
iops is one measure among many but it matters. It's part of the responsiveness of the VPS. High iops and low iowait mean a smoother running, and as such, often a stabler one. I finally made that column public.
NodeDeploy:
HOLY COW!
70k from FitVPS????
76k iops....
FrontRangeHosting KVM-384D
Could be better
I thought we determined that ioping results didn't seem to correlate to anything and weren't really trustable?
was on IDE But it's still kinda slow using virtio:
Ran a few tests, this is about the average. @Corney can you please take a look into this? I'm on Node Breck, thanks!
Personally, I noticed a correlation between iops and VPS responsiveness. Though after 7k iops and up, they all seem the same (to a human). However, to a machine, I'm sure it'll still noticeable.
@FRCorey
After much testing my conclusion is that ioping doesn't in any way reflect real-world performance. I have several awesome VMs that have be delivering excellent service for months -- in some cases years -- on which ioping shows poor results.
It's another of those benchmarking tools where a good result may be good, but a poor result is not necessarily bad
Sorry this was IDE ._.

it is really really slow......
update: I canceled after comparing to other LET vps's I have. The supportstaff can be rude and arrogant.
@Shovehost ooh oooh!!!! ^^^^^^
@xBytez much better ;-)
