Now it's time for download speed ;)

2. Start the test by downloading the file:
3. Share your result here and type the average clearly!

My results:

I'm glad some people find it useful, so maybe one more ;)

The I/O test:

# dd if=/dev/zero of=test bs=64k count=16k conv=fdatasync
16384+0 records in
16384+0 records out
1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 4.58261 seconds, 234 MB/s
 
Totally a nice sharing. It is helpful a lot to masters who owned VPS. Hope more tutorials be available here.
