I think the main problem is when you have providers that made the site instead of the users/clients.
See even AI says you're real
What?
Profits come before members or their opinions / consent - that's how things seem to work.
100% agree
The big question is, why launch a project poorly and ask users to do my work? If you want community opinions, you should take them seriously. You should delete the reviews and start from scratch, like any business/website/blog, etc.
I understand that advertising is important, but take a look at webhostingtalk. If you see something that interests you, look here. It seems like a serious community instead of a newspaper full of banners.
It's just my opinion. Don't take it into account. We all make mistakes, including myself. But seeing user/client opinions makes us improve and we continue working so we don't disappoint them.
Unusable with Firefox, the front page scroll is laggy, uses up an entire core.
Ah thanks, now I realize he meant @jbiloh = "providers". I didn't make that connection so it was confusing.
I also don't understand what this does that VPSBenchmarks doesn't do... Who asked (really)?
In USA you need to demonstrate INJURY to bring suit. Being mad is not an injury. What is the injury?
On what CPU? Asking because I'm in the market for a CPU upgrade, from my Pentium Dual CPU T2390 @ 1.86GHz. Because Firefox is a HOG.
You can litigate based on emotional distress. Drag it to infinity basically.
You right
I have 386 running like a snail.
What version of Firefox are you using?
I’ve been thinking a bit about the benchmarking “scores” and their weighting etc… I’d like some thoughts from the community to see if I’m overthinking this from a provider perspective…
Jon mentioned scores for CPU are based with weight on multi core - aka more cores on a more expensive VPS or Dedi - means a better score.
While I get the intention - doesn’t that paint a poor picture of the provider when may benchmarks come from single or 2 core VM’s?
In the case that a decently performing CPU has a good single core score - the provider gets dinged with a D severely lowering overall rating, simply because the benchmark was performed on a lower paid, lower performing VPS - but that isn’t necessarily a good rating of the provider overall…
How do people think multi core should affect the CPU “score” ultimately affecting the overall rating of the provider?
yeah there should be different metrics, maybe make single core and multi core different? still wouldn't make sense in multi core as 4C will have more scores that 2C so......maybe something else like single core scores remain same while for multiple core scores we go multi score/no. of cores? and do ratio of some sorts and put grades based on that? I mean there still should be some single core categorization as even though a single core 9950x will be lower than dunno what ancient xeon multicore vps 9950x should be graded better obv[comparison in multicore]
just recommending I dunno if its viable or not
Latest, nobody of your guys tested that?
Scrolling works fine on a Ryzen 5 5600, however the entire website is laggy, the ad's loading like its dial up.
However a lower end tier Ryzen 2600, the entire website is a dialup show.
Same goes for https://serververify.com/leaderboards
Also a slide show.
That's pretty smooth for me on my Pentium T2390, scrolls like a breeze, thought I'm sure I'm missing out on a lot of flashy animated widgets that at the end of the day make a lot of difference.
However if a Ryzen 5600 is already handicapped in the modern web, I think my T2390 will have a few more years of service. My way or the highway
I miss my 386, and the days that came with it
We all know how flawed Geekbench 6 is with multicore scores...
We need the highest single core benchmark CPU you can get, just to browse Serververify.
Anyone willing to provide hourly based VM's?
I am still on v2.03.69
that's why I was also confused on how one would evaluate multi score [I remember @labze and @lukast__ mentioning about this] but we can't go with gb5 for multi score and gb6 single core imo so....I mean if we are just discussing about cpu -- single core does prove how how strong the cpu is....or we can go with expected single core score of a cpu model and compare it with the gb6 single score and maybe we can get something out of it? since overselling is also an issue....
Some super intricate algorithms are needed for this, glad I don't have to come up with them!
What are boost 386 gave over 286

If anyone wants to see, how responsive the website is, with Firefox.
When it freezes, its not me stop scrolling, its the browser processing the scroll request.
Agree - but giving a provider a D or lower, just because it’s not Ryzen and not multi core - isn’t actually a true representation… that just leads people to believe (even more than they do today), that a high clock desktop cpu is best for them - when it isn’t in most cases!
You think vibe coded sites will be efficient?
I bet the LLM has hallucinated so much that there are unused classes and dead code no one has any clue about and its just thrown out
Well, i agree this isn't the best optimized website of the year...
My laptop always spins up fans when i have it in foreground.
