This plugin will record the performance of your wp Hosting company.
Ever noticed your site seems to perform OK when you check, but other folk say its slow later. Like gremlins are getting in and making it slower ?
It’s often difficult to know how your wp web site is performing, and how real end users are experiencing the performance of your wp web site.
This plugin will display graphs of the performance of the server (so you’ll be able to see what the gremlins are doing).
It also tracks performance of the web page load speed, which includes all the assets jpg/png/css/js.
You’ll be able to view graphs for different periods of time, to see how your server is performing, and how real world users are observing the performance of your wp site.
You’ll be able to observe when the server is sluggish, or when it is fast.
It is designed to run async, so any performance hit is after the end user’s web page has finished loading. This should result in no impact to your WordPress website delivering pages.
It also has a feature to email you when the server response becomes unacceptably slow.
New Features 
– ability to load test your WordPress website – see how many visitors you can comfortably accommodate. 
– ability to benchmark your current hosting against other hosting companies 
– technology index – to give you an idea of how good/poor the technology your WordPress site is running on 
– artificial benchmark of php and mysql (on the sysinfo page for now). 
– php and technology index on the hosting comparison pages. 
– bot analysis – how much resources are bot consuming ?

CPU performance testing: 
This plugin does various calculations and string manipulations on your PHP webserver 
and your MySQL database server. To further test the MySQL server, a sequence of MySQL 
inserts, selects, updates and deletes are performed in a separate custom database table 
(we do not use your WordPress tables for this).
Network testing: 
The network is tested by fetching directly from Google’s CDN / apis network. Fetching from the Google 
apis network gives you the nearest server, and will give more accurate results. We also fetch a small 1Mb 
file from our servers as well in case the Google apis is down. The network tests are not yet shown in the 
graphs, we are working on this 🙂
Results: 
After the sequence of tests has finished, the results will be displayed for you to evaluate. MySQL results can 
vary depending on the type of connection your webserver has to the MySQL server. If a “local socket” connection 
is used a typical result for the MySQL query test is 0.05-0.25 seconds. Web hosting providers with dedicated MySQL 
servers will show a slower time/queries per second, as a TCP/IP connection to the MySQL server is made instead of 
a local socket connection.
There are many factors that will determine how fast your website will run. This plugin does not test 
for how many hits/requests per second your provider allows to your website, file system performance is not tested 
either. Use it as a performance test to assess how fast a CPU your provider has allocated to your webserver 
and your MySQL database backend.
Share with your friends, let’s start a competition and see who’s got the fastests servers (hint) 🙂

PHP/MySQL CPU performance statistics

Benchmarks PHP and MySQL and does various performance analysis on these. Especially MySQL analysis is good.

In general benchmarks are short, but quite informative.

Works well and does various important tests

I had to measure the performance of my two local machines (a laptop and a desktop). This plugin came in handy to do exactly that. I only wish that there was a way to export the results for future ref!

Handy

With the performance test plugin you can test the CPU and MySQL speed on your webserver and your MySQL server.
