Cloud Mercato tested CPU performance using a range of encryption speed tests:
Cloud Mercato's tested the I/O performance of this instance using a 100GB General Purpose SSD. Below are the results:
I/O rate testing is conducted with local and block storages attached to the instance. Cloud Mercato uses the well-known open-source tool FIO. To express IOPS the following parametersare used: 4K block, random access, no filesystem (except for write access with root volume and avoidance of cache and buffer.

While the chart above is a good start, there’s more than simply considering “Reserved vs. On Demand”. So let’s take a closer look at all the options…

Another common use case is when you don’t need any compute power at certain times. For example, you may use virtual desktops during the work week, but you don’t need any compute power during the weekends when employees are gone.

The most common use case is when you don’t need full power all the time.

They are suited for scale-out workloads such as web servers, containerized microservices, caching fleets, distributed data stores, and development environments.
