This is a small benchmark test / performance comparison with PHP 5 between ThePlanet, Hosteurope and Hetzner Servers. Servers are not same, and there are RAM difference but in this test RAM plays no big role, but CPU plays. The server from Hosteurope is a virtual server with min. 2GB ram guarantie. The other two are dedicated root servers. ThePlanet's OS is Redhat enterprise, The other two are using Debian.
Hetzner : Intel® Core™ i7-920 Quad-Core with 8GB Ram
Hosteurope: 8 Cores Intel® Xeon® with min 2GB or more
ThePlanet: 2x DualCore Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 3.40GHz with 2GB
Benchmark PHP Code:
define("STARTMICROTIME", array_sum( explode(' ', microtime() ) ) );
while($i++ < 999999) $temp_md5 = md5( rand(0,$i) );
$page_gen_time = round(array_sum( explode(" ", microtime())) - STARTMICROTIME, 2);
echo " \n PG Time: $page_gen_time --- \n\n"
?>
Results(average from 10 queries):
Hetzner AG: 1.04 seconds
Hosteurope: 1.77 seconds
Theplanet : 3.80 seconds
