<$25/Month Summary
Sailed had perfect uptime. It also handled the Static test without blinking. The Load Storm test did overwhelm the server starting at 900 VUsers where it slowed down a bit. Overall, it was a pretty good first run. For a tool that's available for free to deploy on your own Digital Ocean machines, it certainly puts pressure on the competition.
LoadStorm
Load Storm is designed to simulate real users visiting the site, logging in and browsing. It tests uncached performance.
K6
K6 is designed to test cached performance by repeatedly requesting the homepage.
WebPageTest
WebPageTest fully loads the homepage and records how long it takes from 12 different locations around the world.
Uptime
Uptime is monitored by two companies: HetrixTools and Uptime Robot. A self hosted monitor was also run in case there was a major discrepancy between the two third party monitors.
WPPerformanceTester
WPPerformanceTester performs two benchmarks. One is a WordPress (WP Bench) and the other a PHP benchmark. WP Bench measures how many WP queries per second and higher tends to be better (varies considerably by architecture). PHP Bench performs a lot of computational and some database operations which are measured in seconds to complete. Lower PHP Bench is better. WP Bench is red in the chart, PHP Bench is blue.
SSL
