We have run a full suite of performance tests on the C2S VPS plan of Scaleway. VPSBenchmarks bought, setup the server and started the tests.
On this page, you'll find:
Provider | Plan | Monthly price | Short term surcharge | Hourly billing | Num CPU cores | Memory (GB) | Disk space (GB) |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Scaleway | C2S | $18.00 | On-demand price: $13.50/month (+-25%). Applies up to 20 days. |
Yes | 4 | 8 | 50 |
Datacenter | CPU type | CPU details | OS, Kernel and Virtualization | Data transfer (GB) |
---|---|---|---|---|
Paris, France | Intel(R) Atom(TM) CPU C2550 @ 2.40GHz |
Frequency: 2.4 GHz |
Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS 4.9.93 None |
Unlimited |
Note: the CPU details Frequency is the frequency observed at the start of the trial. It may vary as the trial progresses.
Grades are calculated by combining results from web, sysbench, endurance, yabs (geekbench, fio, iperf3) and network transfers tests.
Grade A is best, grade F is worst. Follow the letter links to find the test results backing the grade.
Overall Score: 47 (Price Weighted)
Review the list of metrics that the grades above are calculated from.
Note: A low grade on a low price VPS does not necessarily mean the VPS is underperforming, the server may still perform better than other servers at the same price. Use the Price Weighted Grades or the Best VPS 2024 rankings to find the best VPS in each price range.
Web performance is measured locally on the VPS and includes Rails app response times to live web traffic as well as system metrics.

Response times for this VPS were continuously measured from 5 locations and 4 continents in the world. Each measure includes DNS resolution time, connection time, TLS handshake time and server response time.
Review and compare all Remote Timings numbers for the Scaleway - C2S VPS plan.
We have performed large file transfers from the Scaleway - C2S VPS, both downloads and uploads and we measured the speed of the transfers.
The transfers involve multiple files, 10 threads and last for at least 10 seconds at maximum speed. The transfers are repeated 4 times from different nearby servers and only the fastest transfer is considered in grades and comparisons.
Can your VPS handle 24 hours of sustained CPU load without flinching? How much can it handle? Does the provider throttle your CPU after a while?
