Dedicated IP speed test: global 200 nodes latency actual test report

The Meaning Behind Dedicated IP Speed Measurements

When we buy proxy IP in the e-commerce platform, the product details page "millisecond response" "ultra-low latency" and other descriptions are always tempting. But what is the real speed? We conducted a 72-hour continuous test on 200 nodes around the world through the exclusive IP resources of the ipipgo platform. The test found that the IP latency difference between different service providers in the same region can be as high as3.8 timesThis means that choosing the right service provider directly affects the experience.

Global Node Latency Data Exposed

The test uses TCP three handshake times as the latency benchmark value, and each node is sampled 100 times to take the average value. In Southeast Asia, ipipgo residential IP average latency89ms, a significant advantage over the 342ms of some data center IPs. It is noteworthy that the Nordic node performs most consistently, with a standard deviation of 20 consecutive tests of only5.2msThe

Three factors affect IP speed

The measured data show the key factors affecting latency in order:Physical distance > Line quality > Protocol typeThe delay between Brazil and South Africa, for example, is 117ms. Take the visit from Brazil to South Africa as an example, although the straight line distance is similar, the difference in the distribution of submarine fiber optic cables leads to a delay difference of 117ms. ipipgo can automatically avoid congested lines through its self-built intelligent routing system, which is its core technology to maintain low latency.

Practical tips for reducing latency

1. Geographic location preference method: Select the IP in the time zone where the target business server is located. tests have found that using a co-located IP reduces latency by 62%
2. Flexible protocol switching: Real-time switching of Socks5/HTTP protocols in the ipipgo console, reducing handshake time by 20-50ms in some scenarios.
3. long term retention technique: Maintains TCP connection alive and avoids latency fluctuations caused by repeated handshakes.

Test-proven IP Selection Tips

Through the test data of 200 nodes, we summarize 3 hard indicators of quality proxy IP:
1. Weekday peak delay fluctuation <15%
2. Intercontinental access delay <300ms
3. Continuous request success rate >99.2%
These metrics are up to standard in ipipgo's residential IP pool up to 91%, especially with its dynamic IP auto refresh mechanism, which can effectively avoid IP being speed limited.

Frequently Asked Questions QA

Q: Why is there a big difference in IP speeds in the same area?
A: This involves a number of factors such as IP type (residential/data center), service provider network architecture, local carrier docking and so on. It is recommended to choose a service provider like ipipgo that supports real-time speed measurement.

Q: How to verify the real latency of proxy IP?
A: It is recommended to use the tcping tool to test the TCP port response, which is closer to the real use scenario than the traditional ping command. ipipgo console has a built-in latency detection function that allows you to view the real-time data directly.

Q: How to deal with sudden high latency?
A: First submit a diagnostic report within your ipipgo account, the system will automatically analyze whether it is a line problem or IP overload. In most cases switching the protocol type or refreshing the IP will solve the problem.

As can be seen from this global real-world test, the performance of a quality proxy IP is directly related to the technical service capability. For users who need stable and low latency, it is recommended to choose a proxy IP like ipipgo that has a90 million+ real residential IPsThe professional service provider that supports all-protocol switching, with its resource pool covering more than 240 countries/regions, can truly meet the speed requirements of all kinds of scenarios.
