There is a pretty great comparison of major VPS providers that looks at the networks. Scaleways network wasn't great but very tolerable. https://www.webstack.d

- Veratyr 10y agoThe comparison overall is very good but ultimately not very useful to me since the test only covers Germany (which makes sense since it's a German company serving German customers doing the comparison). The providers vary a lot when it comes to transatlantic networking and their performance within Europe is usually very very different. I've been testing VPNs with various combinations of source -> VPN/novpn -> destination, where source, VPN and destination are any combination of US, Europe and Asia and I've found that this is really variable. So much so that there are cases where you can actually improve bandwidth/latency by using a VPN because of the network on the other side.
