Website Speed Test South African Server

[sfid]

Was looking around for this, and couldn't really find a reliable one. So dropped one on my server. Hope this can help someone.

This is hosted internationally like the rest of them. So how is this local in any way?

+1 seems like a marketing attempt, not that there is anything wrong with it I guess

Initially, I am using it as such (thought I may as well) but it will be just a simple speed test in the future.
It is on a server located in SA.

where in South Africa is it hosted?

I am asking as it seems their network is a bit slow:

Local, but hosted with Digital Ocean?
Looks like you're also just pulling something from a test app (Pingdom) API somewhere to give you a meaningless rating.

Spam.

Rather use https://tools.pingdom.com/

Local, but hosted with Digital Ocean? ...

Are Digital Ocean and ServerStack related? I see the nameservers are here in SA and in the US, but the A records point to ServerStack Inc.

DigitalOcean probably rent servers or rack space at ServerStack

Sorry for the thread necro, but been looking for locally hosted website speed tests and found this one: https://www.dotcom-tools.com/website-speed-test.aspx
It seems promising (has a JHB option)... does anyone else use it?
