Thanks for your quote though.
I hear ya.

While there can be many web site, or script related factors, that effect your speed, I would say what you are looking for would be most easily solved by looking at the following when it comes to selecting a VPS provider.

1. The hardware and processor speed of the VPS server?
2. Raid 10 disk space?
3. Is it on a 10MBit, 100Mbit, 1GBPS port?
4. Type of RAM on the VPS (DDR2, DDR3)?

Those are some of the most easily addressed things to consider. Although, your scripts also play a bit part in it. As does the location, and even your own local ISP connection. It could load for me at a split second, and take 2 seconds on your home machine. Which can also be effected by what type of processor you have and so forth.

More importantly, I think we are talking about fractions of a second here. So there are many different variables involved, and while others would like to take shots across other web hosting companies bow with nonsense instead of focusing on customer needs. I would recommend you look at some of those most obvious points above when you are doing your considerations for the VPS.

Good luck!
