OVHcloud Metal Instances - Geekbench

Go back to list

Geekbench 5 is a standard benchmark suite aiming to create a score from different system performance. From its outputs, we capture:

  • Single score: CPU performance
  • Multi score: Whole system performance

Cloud Mercato's assertions

Again, even in term of performance there's no surprise, 32 CPUs as strong as they could be cannot beat a 128CPU machine. The theory would give a machine 4x times better for AWS, here's what we see:

  • In terms of single-score, the OVH's Intels (BM-S1 & BM-M1) are the best performers
  • For multi-score, we need 3.2 BM-L1 to equal the performance of m6i.metal
