Conclusion
The KVM-2 delivered impressive results. The single-core Geekbench 6 score of 1930 and multi-core score of 2461 reflect robust CPU performance for a single-core setup. Memory tests showed exceptional read speeds of 51.53 GB/s and write speeds of 21.61 GB/s, leveraging DDR5 efficiency. Disk performance was equally strong, with NVMe SSD achieving read/write speeds up to 11.3 GB/s and 5.74 GB/s, respectively, and IOPS exceeding 362k for 4k blocks. Network tests revealed stellar 10 Gbps connectivity, with speeds up to 8.09 Gbits/sec to Amsterdam and low latency (7.94 ms to London). Streaming tests confirmed compatibility with platforms like Netflix and Disney+ (UK region), though Google Gemini and Claude were unsupported. IP quality was pristine, with no blacklist records and a low threat score.
The KVM-2’s performance is a standout, particularly for compute-intensive tasks like WordPress hosting or small-scale application servers. The AMD Ryzen 9 and NVMe storage ensure rapid data access, akin to a sports car accelerating on an open highway. However, the single-core allocation may limit parallel processing for heavy multi-threaded applications, like a high-traffic e-commerce platform during peak hours. Network speeds are exceptional for European traffic but drop for distant regions like Singapore (701 Mbits/sec), suggesting optimization for regional use. The clean IP profile and streaming compatibility make it ideal for media or content delivery, though limited email port support could hinder mail server use.
SharedGrid’s KVM-2 VPS offers remarkable performance for its price tier, excelling in CPU, memory, and disk metrics, with top-tier network speeds for European users. It’s an excellent choice for small businesses or developers needing reliable hosting for web applications or streaming. However, for global reach or heavy multi-core workloads, consider higher-tier plans or additional cores. IT administrators seeking a balance of speed, security, and value will find this VPS a compelling option, though email hosting may require alternative solutions.
