Hardware


Our current bare metal server is sponsored by the team over at Rubytune.

All benchmarks are run on a bare metal server in order to achieve consistent and repeatable results. We will not publish CPU results gathered on virtual hosts where we can not control our CPU allocation. All published results were run on production level bare metal servers.

The bare metal server was purchased from Hetzner Online and has the following configuration:
