You would probably need to setup your own site if you wanted to keep it easily updated and what-not.

I appreciate the offer by Chris of Avante Hosting Services, Inc. - he created a standard performance SSD VPS for me to run tests.
The tests will be under way shortly.███ IT blog is under reconstruction, please standby

OK, here we go. The site is up and running (see my signature), and here's the direct link to the chart being built:

I have a VirtualSRV & PieServ with the SSD (supposedly) on OpenVZ. If you let me know the exact commands I can do that for your chart/info. They expire soon so please PM me if possible the info so I can do it right away. Hope it helps out.

Thanks for you assistance. I suppose I will give all the instructions here, perhaps someone else could be interested.
I use 64-bit OS (preferably CentOS 6.x or 5.x, as updated as possible), so I suppose you're familiar with that environment.
Byte UnixBench
Download it from this page. I give the instructions assuming you've downloaded the file UnixBench5.1.3.tgz from the above link and placed into /usr/local/src/arc
Also, make sure that Perl module Time::HiRes is installed. On CentOS 6.x, with EPEL installed, this is ensured by running 'yum install Perl-Time-HiRes', on other OSes you could have to use Perl CPAN shell to install it (make sure gcc/c++ is installed). Contact me if there are problems.
Code:mkdir -p /usr/local/src/install cd /usr/local/src/install tar zxf ../arc/UnixBench5.1.3.tgz cd UnixBench make ./Run
The results will be in results/ directory.
Iozone
Open this page, scroll down to "Download Source" and download 'Stable tarball'. In the code below I assume you downloaded iozone3_405.tar into /usr/local/src/arc :
Code:cd /usr/local/src/install tar xf ../arc/iozone3_405.tar cd iozone3_405/src/current
Code:make linux
Code:make linux-AMD64
Code:mkdir report ./iozone -O -R -a | tee -a report/auto.out ./iozone -O -R -r 4k -s 1m | tee -a report/1m.out ./iozone -O -R -r 4k -s 10m | tee -a report/10m.out ./iozone -O -R -r 4k -s 100m | tee -a report/100m.out ./iozone -O -R -r 4k -s 1000m | tee -a report/1000m.out
fio
If yum/whatever doesn't know anything about 'fio' (run 'yum search fio'), you can take it from this link. The instructions below are for the case you have to build it from sources. I assume you have the fio-2.0.7.tar.gz file in /usr/local/src/arc (you could require installing libaio-devel package, by the way):
Code:cd /usr/local/src/install tar zxf ../arc/fio-2.0.7.tar.gz cd fio-2.0.7 make make install
Code:mkdir ~/tmp cd ~/tmp fio --bs=4k --size=128m --direct=1 --runtime=10 --rw=randread \ --numjobs=32 --group_reporting --time_based --name=128m | \ tee -a iops-32jobs-128m-4k-10sec-randread.txt fio --bs=4k --size=128m --direct=1 --runtime=10 --rw=randwrite \ --numjobs=32 --group_reporting --time_based --name=128m | \ tee -a iops-32jobs-128m-4k-10sec-randwrite.txt rm -f 128m.*
Hope the above will be useful. Of course you could use any other directories/file names.Last edited by Master Bo; 05-03-2012 at 10:51 PM. Reason: correction

As more and more data is collected, I guess a ranking list can be made.

Thanks Henrik, In fact, this research/testing is very interesting to me. I have already found a good SSD-based hosting for my main sites - hosting that is both faster and less expensive.
I think yes. So far the following providers have at least one of their plans covered:
64u.com
avantehosting.net
bluelighthost.com
digicube.fr
infinitie.net
virtualsrv.com
CleverKite and VPSDeploy are currently in process. Also, I was asked to run the same benchmarks for Amazon EC2 instances. Will that be of interest to anyone here?███ IT blog is under reconstruction, please standby

Add PieServ to your list. I'm doing the tests right now while I go to work (take long)

Can't wait to see the scores for serveraxis.com. I'm looking for a east coast VPS to run my game servers. It's a free service I provide so Im always looking for budget (hence why I went with virtualsrv & piesrv that neither worked out). As long as the numbers show decent for serveraxis.com I'll be trying them out next!
