I made the same benchmark: https://gist.github.com/oomathias/175c737c33a1254a28bb4e81e1...

I use Scaleway too but it's different, you have more ram, space, traffic but the perf are not comparable to Linode/DO.

As jsnathan mentioned below, Scaleway's offerings are all multi-core. Sysbench defaults to using only one thread - you need to tell it to use more. (In your case, use --num-threads 4)

[oomathias]

Well, if your app cannot use multi-core this is what you get. SSD and memory perf are below too. Since SSD are not local it makes sense.
