Easiest and best way to find the performance of your dedicated servers or VPS’s is to benchmark them. I have covered how to do a Geekbench test on your linux server here . But that doesn’t test for variables like bandwidth. I know that testing connectivity speeds is easy as running “wget”s against some test files. But I have found a great little script which does this very easily
This will test your VPS or Dedicated server for
- Multiple download tests from various countries
- System Uptime
- Disk IO
Just run this command on terminal to run the script and it will display the results as it happens
wget freevps.us/downloads/bench.sh -O - -o /dev/null|bash
