Reviewed reports
36 published reports
Akamai (Linode) reviewed reports by plan and region. Each row shows its newest report; expand a row for the others. CPU, memory, disk and database values are medians from that report. Network is one Frankfurt download trial from a linked same-VM supplement or a separate matching VM; its value links to its source.

What these results can tell you.

Measured performance of the tested plans, in the named regions, during each recorded test window. Network values come from a single LibreSpeed trial: a linked supplement on the same VM when available, otherwise a later separate VM matching provider, plan, recorded region and resources. The destination is Frankfurt; each value links to that network report.

Other hosts, times, workloads, and routes may differ. A missing result means untested, not zero. No 24-hour consistency run is included.

Provider specifications and measured results are recorded separately; each report lists its full limitations and review.
