I was just looking at Hetzner yesterday, looking to host a HA Postgres setup.

Their block storage volumes look interesting, but I couldn't find any information on performance guarantees, or even claims.

Anyone have an idea about performance (IOPS or MB/s)?

I use them but don't have that info off the top of my head. However, you can easily make an account, get a VPS with a volume and benchmark it in a few minutes for a few cents.
Note that we are talking about two different things here: a VPS is not the same thing as a dedicated server.

I only use their dedicated servers with NVMe SSDs and have never benchmarked the I/O.

Right, but the GP was talking about the network volumes AFAICT.
