Now, after two years, I try to use Contabo VPS again. Today, I ordered a new Contabo VPS 20. The best-selling VPS of Contabo.
Annual payment is $76.32 for 12 months, which is about $6.36/month.
When I SSH to the server, the first thing I want to do is test its performance.

Compare to the old one I used before, the CPU scores are much better.
