Super Host Speed Benchmark

Description

WordPress Speed Benchmark and Testing

Test and benchmark the speed of your hosting provider, based on the speed of their mysql database, which tends to be the main cause of WordPress being slow on some hosts. A score of less than 40 is bad and a score of more than 100 is very good. Scores will be reported to our server in future versions so you can compare speeds with others.

It’s a nice tool but the website being linked to from the plugin is compromised. When you visit the “View ranking table” link, it takes you to a website that tries to get you to download malware.
