Speed Test – Week 109 Summary Table
The fastest host this week is InMotion Hosting with a time of 1.71s, which is a fair way off the all time London record of 0.87s, which was set by HostGator in Week 64.
On our last visit to London (with Cache Enabler on board in Week 106), the average load time for our 8 hosts was 1.77s. This week with Hyper Cache, the average load time was significantly slower at 2.38s.
This is the second week of the Hyper Cache Speed Study, and the signs are clearly pointing to Cache Enabler being much faster than Hyper Cache.
Next week we’ll switch up our test location to Sydney, which will be Hyper Cache’s last chance to prove itself.
And this Week’s Winner is…
