Running a UK Magento store and crave performance? Sonassi offer outstanding Magento hosting that is tailored towards a high content delivery speed. That is why we have created a specific Magento hosting solution. We run custom builds of Apache and PHP which dedicates an extra portion of CPU power to just to your store, to deliver outstanding results.
We haven’t just installed Magento and thrown an opcode cache (eaccelerator/apc/zend) in and suddenly branded our solution “Magento Optimised”, we have spent years developing Magento stores and know what makes them perform best. That is why we have literally spent months perfecting servers just for Magento. Kernel optimisations, custom applications and attention to perfection are what have gone into the Magento hosting package. But, you don’t have to take our word for it though, check out our demo store.
The following graph measures the performance of the server with varying levels of concurrency. Values for full transactions per second (TPS), data downloaded, and network throughtput were measured with 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 and 30 concurrent users. This test was custom made to reflect a real-world simulated load. Supplied with 15 different urls (mixed category/index/search requests), the script downloads the HTML and all other documents inline, including CSS, JavaScript and Images (like a normal user would). This is the best possible test to fairly compare hosts as it truly shows how it can handle a multitude of simultaneous connections.
The purple line shows the data downloaded during the tests (for a single user average). If this line dips at any point, it shows a transaction failure.

Values for full transactions per second (TPS), data downloaded, and network throughtput were measured with 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 and 30 concurrent users. The test is based loosely on the operation of mainstream benchmark tools like Apache Bench (ab) and Siege. The test runs by downloading only the HTML content from a selection of 50 urls. This places the load on the PHP engine and highlights any performance shortcomings.

When trying to understand the failure rate - the position of the line is not important. The important factor is if the line is completely horizontal. Any dips or bends in the line indicates a failure.
