iWebFusion United States Oregon QEMU Virtual CPU KVM VPS Hosting Test and Review
Today, we will check out iWebFusion‘s VPS Hosting in Oregon, USA. This virtual server is set up with a QEMU 2.5+ Virtual CPU and these specs: 4 CPU cores, 16GB of memory, 150GB SSD, a 1Gbps internet connection, 8TB of data, and one IPv4 address.
Our review will look at different benchmarks: the Basic Benchmark to measure general performance, Yabs for disk speed, and the Unix Benchmark for CPU power.
We’ll also test the server’s network with the Global Node Test, check how fast it responds with the Global Ping Test, and see which regions it serves best using the Media Unlock Test.
We’ll use the CloudFlare Internet Test to gauge its internet connection quality. Plus, we’ll see how it handles websites with speed tests from PageSpeed Insights and GTmetrix.

Conclusion
Starting with the Basic Bench test to gauge I/O speed and network capabilities, we found an average I/O speed of 534 MB/s. Network speed varied widely depending on the location, with a local server in Los Angeles showing uploads of 2207 Mbps and downloads of over 7000 Mbps, while farther regions like China saw significant drops, all the way down to 5.48 Mbps upload and 0.96 Mbps download. The tests wrapped up in just under 6 minutes, signaling good performance.
The Yabs Performance Bench told us more about the disk with reads and writes achieving a mixture of impressive speeds, peaking at 19.50 GB/s combined at a 512k block size. Geekbench 6 scores further confirmed the server’s single and multi-core capabilities with scores of 570 and 1555, respectively. The UnixBench highlighted CPU performance, showcasing robust outcomes ranging from 873 for a single instance to 2527 when fully utilizing all cores.
In summary, iWebFusion’s VPS in Oregon shows it’s quite a workhorse. It’s got strong disk performance, powerful CPU capabilities, and competitive network performance across various global nodes. The variety in network performance based on location does warrant consideration, but overall, this server is a solid and versatile foundation for hosting needs, from websites to applications. Whether deploying locally or targeting a global user base, it can take on various tasks.
