Conclusion
The Geekbench 6 benchmark revealed solid performance, with a single-core score of 1310 and a multi-core score of 2344, indicating decent processing power for lightweight workloads. The RAM speed tests showed impressive results, with read speeds of 41,904.60 MB/s and write speeds of 18,562.36 MB/s, making it suitable for memory-intensive tasks. Disk performance was also tested, with 4K block write speeds of 1.4 MB/s (349 IOPS) and 1M block read speeds of 1.9 GB/s (1849 IOPS), demonstrating reliable storage performance for small to medium-sized applications.
Network performance was highlighted, with iperf3 tests showing near-gigabit speeds across multiple locations. For example, the server achieved 1.10 Gbits/sec send and 951 Mbits/sec receive speeds in Amsterdam, with a ping of just 0.954 ms. Even international connections, such as to Los Angeles and Singapore, maintained strong speeds, averaging around 900 Mbits/sec. The server also performed well in streaming unlock tests, successfully accessing platforms like Netflix, Disney+, and Amazon Prime Video with a Dutch region lock. However, YouTube Premium and Google Gemini were not accessible.
In terms of IP quality and security, the server scored well, with low threat levels and no malicious records across multiple databases. The IP addresses were flagged as corporate/hosting usage, with no significant security risks detected. Email port detection showed full support for SMTP, POP3, and IMAP protocols locally, though some external email providers like Gmail and Outlook had limited compatibility.
The Fotbo Netherlands Serverius VPS offers a solid balance of performance, reliability, and affordability, making it a great choice for small-scale projects or lightweight hosting needs. Its strong network performance, decent CPU and RAM speeds, and reliable disk performance make it suitable for tasks like web hosting, streaming, or development environments. While it has some limitations, such as restricted access to certain streaming platforms and email providers, it remains a cost-effective option for users seeking hourly billing flexibility.
