Speed Test – Week 142 Summary Table
For the 2nd week in a row, the fastest host is Kinsta with a time of 1.24s.
It’s early days with our 4 new premium hosts, but it is interesting to see Kinsta & Pressidium pull away from the pack in London.
For next week’s test, I will change up our testing location to Mumbai. I wonder whether Kinsta & Pressidium will continue to dominate in India?
And this Week’s Winner is…
