WordPress Hosting Benchmark tool

This plugin will help you to test your hosting server. By running unified tests, you can see and compare different servers or hosting platforms. It does not require any special additional software or tools, as all tests are executed from within PHP - we simply measure time, that each test take. All tests are grouped and target different aspects or components - CPU, memory, filesystem, database performance, wordpress object cache, network speed. From version 1.2 (released on 27.april.2022) reverse connectivity tests are performed - we will connect to you wordpress and measure connection time. Such tests are performed during running local bechmarks and a short time after, so you can analyze, how big impact single heavy task may have on page load time.

Please use default Wordpress plugin installation method through Wordpress plugin repository.
