OneQode Guam Latency Optimized High Performance Cloud Server Test and Review
We recently tested the OneQode Guam Latency Optimized High-Performance Cloud Server (Plan: xer.medium). Powered by an Intel Core Processor (Skylake, IBRS), the server features a dual-core CPU, 4 GB of RAM, 76 GB of SSD storage, a 1 Gbps internet port, and 10 TB of free traffic.
In our review, we implemented several tests. We used the Basic Benchmark, Yabs, and Unix Benchmark to check performance. We conducted the Global Node Test to evaluate network speeds across different locations and measured latency with the Global Ping Test.
Our review also included the Media Unlock Test to check media accessibility and the CloudFlare Internet Test to examine the connection quality. Additionally, we assessed web performance using PageSpeed Insights and GTmetrix.

Conclusion
During our tests, the Basic Bench revealed I/O speeds hovering around 105.7 MB/s across multiple runs. While these speeds are adequate, they fall below the ideal mark of 200 MB/s, indicating room for improvement in data handling efficiency. On the networking front, the server exhibited strong upload and download speeds across various global nodes, with slight decreases in performance at farther distances like Amsterdam and notable bottlenecks in Shanghai. Meanwhile, the Yabs performance metrics were more robust, with disk speeds on larger blocks (512k and 1m sizes) reaching over 200 MB/s, pointing to good capacity for handling mixed read/write operations.
The server’s CPU and overall system performance, assessed through Geekbench and UnixBench tests, showed excellent results. The Geekbench 6 scores were commendable, with a single-core score of 1469 and a multi-core score of 2608, indicating good overall processing power. The UnixBench scores further substantiated this by showing high performance in various benchmarking tests, particularly in file copying and pipe throughput, clearly benefiting from running multiple parallel operations.
In conclusion, the OneQode Guam server stands out regarding CPU power and network throughput, which is especially beneficial for applications requiring high-performance computing and efficient data handling. However, there is a notable need for improvements in I/O speeds to maximize the hardware’s potential. Businesses looking for a capable server solution in Asia-Pacific would find this product appealing, provided the I/O performance gap is addressed in future optimizations.
