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 blue in the chart, PHP Bench is red.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/reviewsignal.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/WPPerformanceTester-Results-101-200_Mo-.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"371\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2826\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Results_Table-5\">Results Table<\/span><\/h3>\n<table class=\"sortable\" dir=\"ltr\" border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<colgroup>\n<col width=\"100\" \/>\n<col width=\"100\" \/>\n<col width=\"100\" \/><\/colgroup>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;Company Name&quot;}\">Company Name<\/td>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;PHP Bench&quot;}\">PHP Bench<\/td>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;WP Bench&quot;}\">WP Bench<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;1&amp;1 IONOS&quot;}\">1&amp;1 IONOS<\/td>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:3,&quot;3&quot;:10.029}\">10.029<\/td>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:3,&quot;3&quot;:370.50759540571}\">370.5075954<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;Cloudways&quot;}\">Cloudways<\/td>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:3,&quot;3&quot;:7.605}\">7.605<\/td>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:3,&quot;3&quot;:628.14070351759}\">628.1407035<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;Jelastic, Inc&quot;}\">Jelastic, Inc<\/td>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:3,&quot;3&quot;:7.888}\">7.888<\/td>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:3,&quot;3&quot;:1314.0604467806}\">1314.060447<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;Nestify&quot;}\">Nestify<\/td>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:3,&quot;3&quot;:7.487}\">7.487<\/td>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:3,&quot;3&quot;:753.01204819277}\">753.0120482<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;Pantheon&quot;}\">Pantheon<\/td>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:3,&quot;3&quot;:8.996}\">8.996<\/td>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:3,&quot;3&quot;:309.8853424233}\">309.8853424<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;Pressable&quot;}\">Pressable<\/td>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:3,&quot;3&quot;:6.213}\">6.213<\/td>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:3,&quot;3&quot;:1297.0168612192}\">1297.016861<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;Seravo&quot;}\">Seravo<\/td>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:3,&quot;3&quot;:8.029}\">8.029<\/td>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:3,&quot;3&quot;:463.60686138155}\">463.6068614<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;Servebolt.com&quot;}\" data-sheets-hyperlink=\"http:\/\/Servebolt.com\">Servebolt.com<\/td>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:3,&quot;3&quot;:3.275}\">3.275<\/td>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:3,&quot;3&quot;:2049.1803278689}\">2049.180328<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;WPOven&quot;}\">WPOven<\/td>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:3,&quot;3&quot;:11.831}\">11.831<\/td>\n<td data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:3,&quot;3&quot;:497.26504226753}\">497.2650423<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3><span id=\"Discussion-5\">Discussion<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Servebolt blew away the competition on this test recording near 50% faster scores on both PHP bench and WP bench than the next fastest competitors.

Their uptime was solid, but the load tests just had too many errors which seemed like were triggered by security features because response times were remaining flat.<\/p>\n<h4><a href=\"http:\/\/clicks.reviewsignal.com\/out.php?c=167&amp;t=wordpress-benchmarks-article-2020\">Cloudways<\/a>\u00a0[<a href=\"https:\/\/reviewsignal.com\/webhosting\/company\/167\/cloudways\">Reviews<\/a>] (AWS Large)<\/h4>\n<p>Perfect uptime.

The only issue was the response times increased around 2500 users on Load Impact to over 1000ms which meant Nestify earned Honorable Mention status.<\/p>\n<h4><a href=\"http:\/\/clicks.reviewsignal.com\/out.php?c=116&amp;t=wordpress-benchmarks-article-2020\">Pantheon<\/a>\u00a0[<a href=\"https:\/\/reviewsignal.com\/webhosting\/company\/116\/pantheon\">Reviews<\/a>]<\/h4>\n<p>100% uptime. Effortless load test results including the fastest Load Impact average response time. Often the fastest response times on WebPageTest with the second fastest average load time overall.

Incredibly fast Load Impact results with zero errors and second fastest peak average load time. The only thing that kept Pressable from earning Top Tier status was Load Storm slowing down responses from 500ms to 1100ms during the test. Honorable Mention well earned.<\/p>\n<h4><a href=\"http:\/\/clicks.reviewsignal.com\/out.php?c=218&amp;t=wordpress-benchmarks-article-2020\">Seravo<\/a><\/h4>\n<p>Perfect uptime. Solid Load Impact result. The downfall was a docker proxy bug which kept popping up and causing a lot of errors on Load Storm.<\/p>\n<h4><a href=\"http:\/\/clicks.reviewsignal.com\/out.php?c=208&amp;t=wordpress-benchmarks-article-2020\">Servebolt<\/a><\/h4>\n<p>Servebolt prides themselves on speed. They were blazingly fast on WPPerformanceTester. They had the fastest average response time on WebPageTest. They had the fastest Load Storm average response time. Top Tier honors were easily awarded to Servebolt.<\/p>\n<h4><a href=\"http:\/\/clicks.reviewsignal.com\/out.php?c=177&amp;t=wordpress-benchmarks-article-2020\">WPOven<\/a><\/h4>\n<p>A relatively unknown provider which intermittently participates in these benchmarks.
