Public iperf3 servers vary in capacity and availability. Compare a target only with itself over time.

## Advertised vs. measured

| Spec | Advertised | Measured |

| Storage | 60 GB NVMe | 58.9 GiB |
| Architecture | x86\_64 | x86\_64 |
| Virtualization | KVM | KVM |

Guests usually report slightly less RAM and disk than advertised because of kernel reservations and filesystem overhead.
