In this week’s Performance Report we’re putting WooCommerce to the test! We’ve used a fairly affordable server from Hetzner, the CCX13 to be specific, and provisioned that server using SpinupWP.
In the chart below you’ll see how a clean install of WooCommerce performs when the server is under load with logged in users.
WooCommerce 9.8.1 was tested on a site with 1 users and 14 posts running on PHP 8.3.19, WordPress 6.8 and nginx/1.26.3 while using the Astra theme. The test started with 10 concurrent users and increased by 10 users per iteration up to 200 users, with a maximum response time threshold observed at 8537.33 ms.
Environment Details
- Hetzner CCX13
- 2 AMD Epyc vCPU’s
- 8 GB RAM
- 40 GB SSD
- Provisioned by SpinupWP
