CPU Encryption Speed Benchmarks

Cloud Mercato tested CPU performance using a range of encryption speed tests:

Encryption Algorithm Speed (1024 Block Size, 3 threads)
AES-128 CBC 282.4MB
AES-256 CBC 200.6MB
MD5 1.9GB
SHA256 788.7MB
SHA512 1.1GB
I/O Performance

Cloud Mercato's tested the I/O performance of this instance using a 100GB General Purpose SSD. Below are the results:

Read Write
Max 3099 3098
Average 3078 2430
Deviation 28.2 1070.11
Min 3031 616

I/O rate testing is conducted with local and block storages attached to the instance. Cloud Mercato uses the well-known open-source tool FIO. To express IOPS the following parametersare used: 4K block, random access, no filesystem (except for write access with root volume and avoidance of cache and buffer.
