Update (14-May-2011): HazeNet has been taken over by ThrustVPS / Rus Foster. Read more about it here
This benchmark is #2 in the series from HazNet, the previous one was done on their Core2Quad series and this one is on their latest XEON nodes.
Unix Benchmark results from HazNet using unixbench v 5.1.2. HazeNet offers 4 cores on their 1024 and 2048 packages.
Specs: 1024MB OpenVZ running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS 32bit

I requested Colin, CEO HazeNet to put 8 cores on my VPS so that I can do a full scale benchmark, the result came close to 3100. Pretty good for a non empty server.
[…] Under : Benchmark, byte-unixbench, HazeNet, unixbench, VPS Update (29-Aug-2010): Please check the latest benchmark results from their XEON node, pretty awesome for a 1024MB […]
[…] Brilliant result!. I am really impressed with the benchmark numbers because this is pretty close to the benchmark results of 1024MB OpenVZ with another provider that I posted earlier. […]
