KhanWebHost United States Texas High-Performance KVM VPS Test and Review
Today, we’re closely examining the KhanWebHost Texas VPS server. It runs on a powerful Intel Xeon E5-2699 v4 processor, boasting a configuration that includes 4 CPU cores, 6GB of RAM, 50GB of SSD storage, a 500 Mbps internet port, 1TB of bandwidth, and both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
We put this server through its paces with a series of tests. First, we ran standard benchmarks like Basic Benchmark, Yabs, and Unix Benchmark to measure its core performance. Then, we checked its network capabilities globally with the Global Node Test and gauged its response times with the Global Ping Test.
We used the Media Unlock Test for media streaming to see what content it could access. We evaluated its connection quality with the CloudFlare Internet Test. Lastly, website speeds were tested with tools like PageSpeed Insights and GTmetrix Performance.
