Kuroit United Kingdom London Powerful KVM VPS Server Test and Review
This review evaluates the performance of Kuroit‘s VPS (Virtual Private Server) based in London, United Kingdom. The server has a powerful Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1240 v6 @ 3.70GHz processor. The technical specifics of this server include a dual-core CPU, 4GB of RAM, 50GB of SSD storage, a 10Gbps internet port, 3TB of traffic capacity, robust DDoS protection enabling up to 160Gbps, and a single IPv4 address.
Firstly, we’ll execute the Basic Benchmark, Yabs, and Unix Benchmark tests to obtain vital server performance metrics. Secondly, we’ll conduct the Global Node Test for a comprehensive network examination, followed by the Global Ping Test to measure response time or latency.
For assessing regional accessibility, we’ll adopt the Media Unlock Test. The CloudFlare Internet Test will then be applied to gauge the quality of the connection. In addition to these, we will also run assessments focussed on web performance through tools like PageSpeed Insights and GTmetrix Performance.

Conclusion
The first aspect of the examination was the Basic Bench test, which evaluated the I/O speed and network performance with different location-based upload, download, and latency measurements. The outcome revealed a fairly consistent global performance, with top speeds recorded in Europe (Paris and Amsterdam) and the lowest in some Asian locations (Chongqing and Guangzhou, China).
Next, we ran the Yabs Performance Bench test, which inspects disk speed with mixed read/write operations in various block sizes. The server demonstrated robust performance, particularly impressive in larger block sizes (512k and 1m). Concurrently, the Geekbench 6 Benchmark Test was conducted, which gauged the server’s Single-Core and Multi-Core processing capabilities.
The UnixBench test then evaluated various aspects of CPU performance. The server was scored on an extensive list of parameters like “Execl Throughput,” “File Copy” in various buffer sizes, “Pipe Throughput,” “Process Creation,” “Shell Scripts executing,” and “System Call Overhead”. A high score in these tests is a positive sign, and Kuroit’s VPS scored consistently high, particularly in ‘Dhrystone 2 using register variables’, ‘File Copy 4096 bufsize 8000 maxblocks’, and ‘Shell Scripts’ parameters.
Finally, the Media Unlock Test checked regional accessibility to various media services. Notable results included access to Amazon Prime Video (Region GB) and TVBAnywhere+, while limitations were revealed for Dazn, HotStar, Disney+, Spotify registration, and YouTube Premium.
In conclusion, the Kuroit VPS based in London delivers an impressive and robust performance across most tests. It stands particularly strong in larger block-size read/write operations and demonstrates healthy CPU performance across various tasks. Notably, while excellent in many areas, media accessibility results reveal regional variations that potential users should consider based on their specific needs.
