Host Mayo Netherlands Intel Xeon Processors Powered VPS Test and Review
We recently tested Host Mayo‘s virtual private server in the Netherlands to see how it performs. This server runs on a strong Intel Xeon processor at 2.60 GHz, and it comes with a setup that includes an 8-core CPU, 16 GB of memory, 200 GB of storage, a fast 1 Gbps internet port, a 10 TB data transfer, and 5 IPv4 addresses.
Our tests used basic benchmarks and more specific tools to see how the server does regarding speed, power, and connectivity. We checked its overall network performance, how quickly it responds, and whether it can access different regional contents without issues. We also tested how well it connects through CloudFlare and used tools like PageSpeed Insights and GTmetrix to see how it handles website speed and performance.
About Host Mayo
HostMayo.com is a web hosting service provider that offers a variety of hosting solutions, including KVM VPS (Kernel-based Virtual Machine Virtual Private Server). This service caters to businesses and individuals requiring high control and flexibility over their hosting environment.
KVM VPS is a type of virtualization where the VPS operates its kernel independently of the host node. This means you can run your instance of any operating system separate from the host node’s OS. This provides a high level of customization, security, and stability.
HostMayo’s KVM VPS is available in the Netherlands and the USA. This geographical diversity allows users to choose a location that best suits their needs, whether it’s proximity to their user base or compliance with local data laws.
One of the standout features of HostMayo’s KVM VPS is SSD (Solid State Drive) storage. Compared to traditional HDD (Hard Disk Drive) storage, SSDs provide faster data access times and lower latency, which can significantly improve the performance of your hosted applications.
HostMayo also offers advanced features like instant upgrades. As your needs grow, you can easily upgrade your VPS to accommodate more traffic, run more complex applications, or store more data.
In terms of security, HostMayo’s KVM VPS includes DDOS protection. Distributed Denial of Service (DDOS) attacks are a significant threat to online services, and this feature helps to safeguard your VPS from such attacks.

Conclusion
The VPS delivered mixed results in our speed tests. While data input/output (I/O) speeds fluctuated, averaging 14.3 MB/s, internet speeds impressed in most locations. For instance, the Amsterdam connection was quick, with less than 1.30 ms latency. However, long-distance spots like Tokyo showed limitations, with download speeds dropping to single digits.
Digging deeper with the Yabs performance test, the server flexed its capabilities, especially when dealing with larger data blocks. The reading and writing speeds blasted past several gigabytes per second, showing that this server can handle intense data tasks. Geekbench and UnixBench scores revealed its strong CPU performance, comfortably handling many simultaneous processes.
It wasn’t all smooth sailing, though; the VPS struggled to unlock certain media content. While services like Amazon Prime Video and Disney+ were accessible, Netflix limited its offering to originals, and other platforms like HotStar and Spotify was out of reach.
To wrap it up, Host Mayo’s Netherlands-based VPS shows promise, particularly for data-heavy workloads, with its high processing power and top-notch network speeds in Europe. It’s less adapted for global operations requiring consistent high-speed connectivity or for using a media server to access a full range of international content.
