CMS Performance Benchmark Test

Test Summary

Test results are mixed as some CMS systems scored exceptionally well as others fell short.

It is a clear indication that the core CMS system you choose or use can influence the overall performance of your web application. Equally important is that your core host performance plays a factor in these results.

Below we have made available a summary of some benchmark tests conducted. These CMS performance tests include Wordpress, Joomla!, Drupal, TYPO3 & Prestashop.

Process

These benchmark performance tests have been conducted on the stock version/core CMS systems. We then populated the CMS with the included sample or standard demo data that has been shipped with the installation package. These systems have not been modified and are in their original install state. For example, no-cache mechanisms have been activated or any form of additional performance aid applied. The goal of this approach had been to remove as many variables that could skew test results. They only had one thing in common, all of these CMS systems had been deployed on the FullSail Systems Production Hosting Platform.
