# yabs.sh on Contabo "transparent" plan
fio read:  850 MB/s
fio write: 420 MB/s
iperf to CloudCone: 780 Mbps
iperf to Vultr:   1.1 Gbps
geekbench 6: 1423 / 3980

Published: AMD EPYC 7443, Samsung PM893, Arista 7060CX

Unpublished: actual rack location, transit blend ratios, whether they own or lease the switch

Decent disk IO, meh network

Would pay 15% more for full specs, 50% only if they published peeringDB entry and live utilization graphs

fio, iperf, geekbench. results or gtfo.

I ask support already, they say "premium server-server" only, lah

I will pay 50% more if they show the CPU model and disk type, but not if they just write "cloud technology" or "NVMe powered", lah. That is marketing only, not real transparency

Contabo already publish some detail, I think they are okay already
