LightNode Indonesia Jakarta Intel Xeon Processor VPS Hosting Test and Review
In this test, we will examine the performance of a LightNode Indonesia Jakarta Shared vCPU VPS Server. Equipped with an Intel Xeon Processor (Skylake, IBRS), the server features 4 CPU cores, 8 GB of RAM, 160 GB of SSD Storage, supports 20 TB of outgoing traffic, and provides 1x IPv4.
Our comprehensive evaluation will encompass a variety of rigorous tests:
– The Basic Benchmark, Yabs, and Unix Benchmark will provide essential performance metrics.
– The Global Node Test is designed to extensively evaluate the server’s network performance.
– The Global Ping Test is aimed at measuring the latency.
Further, to assess the server’s ability to provide content across regions, we will conduct the Media Unlock Test. Regarding connectivity and Internet quality, the CloudFlare Internet Test will be used.
For the holistic assessment of the server’s performance in the web dimension, we will leverage tools such as PageSpeed Insights and the GTmetrix Performance Test.
These exhaustive evaluations will give you an in-depth understanding of the server’s overall performance.

Conclusion
The server’s I/O speed was assessed, with data indicating excellent stability across all three runs – the speeds were registered at 494 MB/s, 522 MB/s, and 518 MB/s, respectively, with an average speed of 511.3 MB/s. Network performance tests over various global locations showed varied results, with high upload and download speeds notably in North America and Europe, slower in China, and relatively high latency in Asia.
The fio Disk Speed Tests (Modified R/W 50/50) indicated strong performance with high read/write speeds across different block sizes. A highlight was a total performance of 2.98 GB/s (5.8k IOPS) during the 512k block size test.
An additional test, the Geekbench 6 Benchmark, provided scores of 649 for Single Core and 1178 for Multi Core. The YABS test was completed in approximately 16 minutes, a respectable duration for performance evaluation.
Finally, The Unix Benchmarks showed impressive performance. The first benchmark run, utilizing 1 parallel copy of tests, yielded a Benchmark Index Score of 789.6. When the system load was increased by running 2 parallel copies of tests, the server performance scaled surprisingly well, with the Benchmark Index Score almost doubling to 1464.7.
The LightNode Indonesia Jakarta Shared vCPU VPS Server has shown substantial potential in balanced performance across various benchmarks. It demonstrates solid network, I/O, and CPU performance for diverse server tasks. However, regional discrepancies in network performance should be noted for global applications.
