better, together.
Licensed under the GNU General Public License v3 ## Requirements
[joshtronic]: https://joshtronic.com This script is designed to be run on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. It is likely to work on
other versions of Ubuntu and Debian, but is only maintained for the latest LTS.
## Usage
To run these benchmarks, simply execute the `run.sh` script, passing in the name
of the hosting provider (any string really) as the first argument:
```shell
./run.sh hosting-provider
```
The provider name is used when creating the compressed archive of the results.
