I'm happy to run any benchmarks people like (within reason). I can also compare to most AWS instances if you like.

I’d be especially interested in any disk & network speed benchmarks.

I was actually looking at getting a C2750 (the 8 core avoton) a while back for a small low-power home server, and came across someone who'd already done some decent benchmarking: http://www.servethehome.com/intel-atom-c2750-8-core-avoton-rangeley-benchmarks-fast-power/ http://www.servethehome.com/intel-atom-c2750-8-core-avoton-r... TLDR; For the blowfish test suite (multi-threaded), it's almost on par with an m3.2xlarge, for the majority of other multi-threaded tests, it's a little quicker than an m3.xlarge, but for anything that is single-threaded, it's pretty slow.

Please run nbench [1]. I ran it on the C1 in April 2015 and got the following results: CPU : 4 CPU L2 Cache : OS : Linux 3.2.34-29 C compiler : gcc version 4.8.2 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.8.2-19ubuntu1) libc : libc-2.19.so MEMORY INDEX : 5.859 INTEGER INDEX : 8.164 FLOATING-POINT INDEX: 5.770 For comparison, here are an Intel Atom N450, a Core 2 Duo L7500 and a Raspberry Pi 1 Model B: CPU : Dual GenuineIntel Intel(R) Atom(TM) CPU N450 @ 1.66GHz 1667MHz L2 Cache : 512 KB OS : Linux 3.2.0-23-generic C compiler : gcc version 4.6.3 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.6.3-1ubuntu5) libc : libc-2.15.so MEMORY INDEX : 10.845 INTEGER INDEX : 9.315 FLOATING-POINT INDEX: 8.748 CPU : Dual GenuineIntel Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU L7500 @ 1.60GHz 1601MHz L2 Cache : 4096 KB OS : Linux 3.5.0-26-generic C compiler : gcc version 4.6.1 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.6.1-9ubuntu3) libc : libc-2.13.so MEMORY INDEX : 18.734 INTEGER INDEX : 14.318 FLOATING-POINT INDEX: 23.178 CPU : L2 Cache : OS : Linux 3.6.11+ C compiler : gcc version 4.6.3 (Debian 4.6.3-14+rpi1) libc : libc-2.13.so MEMORY INDEX : 2.536 INTEGER INDEX : 3.159 FLOATING-POINT INDEX: 2.157 [1] http://www.tux.org/~mayer/linux/bmark.html http://www.tux.org/~mayer/linux/bmark.html

    I have to be honest, they don't look bad at all. From my experience so far, C1 is like working with a microwave, and VC1 (VPS) is much nicer, for €2.99 let's not forget.

    And for comparison here's the VC1 (VPS): CPU : Dual GenuineIntel Intel(R) Atom(TM) CPU C2750 @ 2.40GHz 2394MHz L2 Cache : 4096 KB OS : Linux 4.4.4-std-3 C compiler : gcc version 5.3.1 20160224 (Debian 5.3.1-10) libc : libc-2.21.so MEMORY INDEX : 22.474 INTEGER INDEX : 17.149 FLOATING-POINT INDEX: 22.035 The single core performance is pretty much the same as the C2S, but it has half as many cores and one fourth the memory.

    But what about the VC1 (VPS)?

What does "openssl speed" say? Thanks!
