> Uhh, a statement like this somewhat hurts the ability to trust the other claims of the benchmark.

Why?

> Sure, Linode has the lowest clock speed, but you're comparing Epyc Milan which is almost a decade newer than the Sandy-Bridge EP of Cloudfanatic for example.

Sure, but also take into consideration that the Linode instance costs $48/month while the Cloudfanatic one costs $18/month. Both of them have the same amount of CPU cores too.

Seems like this is a Linode problem of offering old hardware, instead of a problem with the benchmark itself.
