Kuroit USA Los Angeles Intel Xeon CPU E5-2697A High Performance KVM VPS Test and Review
We recently put the Kuroit VPS server in Los Angeles to the test. This server uses a strong Intel Xeon processor with these specs: it’s got 2 CPU cores, 4GB of RAM, 50GB of fast SSD storage, a 1 Gbps internet connection, 3TB of bandwidth, and comes with one IPv4 address.
Here’s a rundown of our tests:
- Basic performance checks (Basic Benchmark, Yabs, and Unix Benchmark) to see how the server handles tasks.
- Tested how it connects with networks worldwide (Global Node Test) and how quickly it responds (Global Ping Test).
- We checked if it can access different media content across regions (Media Unlock Test).
- We assessed the quality of its connection to CloudFlare.
- Measured web performance with tools like PageSpeed Insights and GTmetrix to see how fast it loads web pages.

Conclusion
When we first tested the server, we found that its speed for handling data varied a lot, ranging from 140 MB/s to 778 MB/s, with an average speed of about 541 MB/s. This is pretty good for managing data. The network tests showed great download and upload speeds, especially across the US. For instance, speeds nearly reached 1 gigabit per second in cities like Los Angeles and Dallas.
The more complex Yabs test gave us a clearer view of how well the server manages tasks that mix reading and writing data, showing strong performance, especially on tasks with larger data blocks. The fio Disk Speed Test showed that the server handles larger files well, reflecting strong disk performance. The Geekbench scores confirmed the server’s strong processing ability with top-notch scores in single and multi-core tasks.
Overall, the Kuroit VPS server is powerful in handling CPU and network tasks, offering high speeds and quick response times, particularly in North America. It’s also great at reading and writing data quickly.
These findings suggest the server can take on tough tasks and offer stable and quick online service access, although it might face some challenges in certain parts of Asia. If you’re looking for a VPS in Los Angeles, the Kuroit server is a strong option.
