Speed Test – Week 105 Summary Table

The fastest host this week is InMotion Hosting with a time of 1.02s, which is not far off the all time Dallas record of 0.78s, which was set by SiteGround in Week 78.

On our last visit to Dallas (with Simple Cache on board in Week 102), the average load time for our 8 hosts was 1.23s. This week with Cache Enabler, the average load time is exactly the same at 1.23s.

This is the first week of the Cache Enabler Speed Study and luckily we have 2 more weeks of testing, as so far, there is no way of separating Simple Cache & Cache Enabler.

Next week we’ll switch up our testing location to London, I wonder which caching plugin will prove to be fastest?
