One thing with those benchmarks:
Amon's piece is back when Scaleway was way more expensive. Amon says that he started a DigitalOcean Droplet with similar specs to the Scaleway box.
The Scaleway box has 2GB of memeory and 4 cores.
The first Digital Ocean box with more than 1 core and 2GB of memory is $20 a month. That's 6 times more expensive than Scaleway!
It would be interesting to see what the benchmarks would be like on the price competitive Digital Ocean offering (single core, 512MB memory, 20GB Hard disk)
