The specific model cannot be seen after CPU virtualization, but judging from the main frequency, it is exactly the same as that of Phoenix. Let us speculate that it is Ryzen 9 3900X. The webmaster likes to turn on BBR. The current hard disk I/O is roughly 796MB/S looks like:

For detailed hard disk read and write data, refer to the FIO test:

How far the network can run? Let’s check the multi-node speedtest.net:

The daytime data doesn’t show any big difference between the three networks. The evening peak is just a mirror. Except for China Unicom, which is slightly balanced, the rest are really terrible, right?

Network uplink and downlink test results of other nodes in Asia:

Let iperf3 run down the European and American nodes to see the situation:

The files stored on Chicken are downloaded directly by Guangzhou Telecom using the Chrome browser. The speed during the day is as follows:

During the evening peak period, there is only 2.8MB/S, which is at most one-third of that during the day:

The latency detection data of more than 160 nodes around the world are as follows:

Telecom outbound journey, telecom backbone docking with cogentco:

China Unicom outbound, 169 backbone docking GTT to Seattle:

Moving outbound, CMI International connects cogentco to Los Angeles and then transfers to Seattle:

Return to China Telecom:

Beijing direction: I came out of the computer room and struggled for a while, but finally connected directly to the San Jose node of China Telecom.

Shanghai direction: After leaving the computer room, take Verizon from Los Angeles to connect with the telecommunications backbone,

Guangzhou direction: Go out of the computer room and go to the cogentco to connect with the telecommunications backbone.

Return to China Unicom:

Beijing direction: finally take Sprint in Los Angeles to connect to China Unicom AS4837 and come back,

Shanghai direction: San Jose cogentco connects to China Unicom AS4837 and comes back,

Guangzhou direction: Los Angeles Verizon docks with China Unicom AS4837 and returns,

Return, move to mainland China:

Beijing and Shanghai directions: both are directly connected from the mobile San Jose node,

Guangzhou direction: Seattle telia docks with the mobile node and comes back directly

Approximate test results of streaming media unlocking:

Performance management test:

A rough summary:

Judging from the stability of speedtest and the way of return routing: China Unicom users are connected to AS4837 to return to China, which is relatively stable, but the effect is not particularly good during the evening peak; for the rest of China Telecom and China Unicom, although some are Directly connected, but fried to a pulp during the evening rush hour.

Webmaster Tips:

Officially, there is no after-sales support for the special version of VPS. If you send a work order, it will generally be ignored. If you send too many work orders, it may be deleted or even warned. Please be sure to understand before buying! The current AMD series VPS takes a long time to boot (maybe days, weeks or even longer), and there are many bugs, such as the system cannot be reinstalled, the system cannot be booted after reinstallation, etc.

If you like to play cheap VPS, the webmaster recommends two merchants:

1: RackNerd, an American VPS merchant, has many American low-priced VPSs. Please refer to some promotions:
