Also, glad to see that my benchmarking script is functioning as expected. You might have gotten a better idea of your VPS's performance as the speedtest is done from places in all the continents (except Antarctica of course).

I'm giving this thread a 4-star and that's bcuz I'd have loved to see an official Speedtest.net benchmark done on the VPS. I recommended using the official cli application - https://speedtest.net/apps/cli - instead of the Python script (as the results are more accurate). Consider doing it about 4-5 times and taking the average and you'll get a good idea of your VPS's performance. Just update the OP with the speedtest results and I'll be more than happy to change my rating to a perfect 5-star. Best of luck with the VPS!

Hi I'm Reflyansyah, last January I was given VPS 6 by Post4Vps after I stopped being the holder of VPS 18!
And after getting VPS 6 I did a lot of experiments and projects that were only designated for fun activities!
But now I started looking for new ideas with VPS 6 after the community that I lived in was destroyed by a team that was paid to report groups on Facebook!
Now some projects are run on VPS 6 but the source code is not stored in this VPS, the reason is to keep the source code safe!
Instead of reading this history, let's just review this VPS! *CMIIW

About VPS providers
BladeNode is a hosting service provider that provides services such as WEB Hosting, VPS Hosting, and DEDICATED Hosting
BladeNode also have a support team that stays 24/7 on-site to help you if you have a problem with their premium service!
For the price of the service itself is quite competitive with large hosting providers such as Vultr and Digital Ocean,
so why not try their services?

CPU Benchmark
Previously I told you the specifications of this little VPS!
Now let's make this VPS slow down by benchmarking it!

In the UnixBench Software the benchmark results show that VPS 6 given by BladeNode got a score of 582.9!
Now let's test with the next software!

Code:

Geekbench 5 Benchmark Test:

Full Test       | https://browser.geekbench.com/v5/cpu/1637918

But with GeekBench 5 Software, this VPS only gets a score of 412 for single core and 400 for multi core!
Next let's test the connection of this VPS, but before that I want to remind you that you must stay at home while the corona virus is spreading!

The given bandwidth can be said to be fast especially for me who want a fast connection to backup Game Server data to Google Drive, so this VPS can be said to be one of the VPS with a very fast connection port!

Experience with this VPS
1. This VPS has experienced downtime of more than 6 hours which certainly makes me have to wait for the VPS to turn on again to test a script that I made!
2. For performance, this VPS has never slowed down!
3. Port speed is very stable!

How about this review? If it's good give this thread 5 stars, and if it's not good give 1 star and give your suggestion in a new post!
And don't forget it's April 1, if you try to lie to me, I won't accept it!

below is the raw file,
If there are suggestions, let me know!

I really like the CPU frequency, seems to be quite powerful regardless of the fact that you only get a single core.

However, I did notice that the disk speeds aren’t all that impressive. Might not be a huge deal, but definitely something noticeable.

And no, this isn’t an April fool haha. Made me laugh when when you mentioned it lol.

I, myself, use Termius as well. But may I know what you used GitHub for? Is it to get the scripts? If that’s the case, it’s nothing different to what I’ve been doing.

However, the QuickEditor part is completely different.

Our disk speeds have been horrible and I know that.  To resolve this we have upgraded the Node01 that VPS 6 was on to a fully pure SSD.  This should make a huge difference in performance. I hope whoever uses VPS 6 will also feel it.
