YABS (Yet Another Benchmark Script) is a benchmark script developed by a guy I know from another forum.
It allows you to benchmark your Linux VPS with a single line/command and generates a nice, human-readable output.

Usage: Run either command on your VPS.

Bash: 
curl -sL yabs.sh | bash

or

Bash: 
wget -qO- yabs.sh | bash

Tests conducted in this benchmark:

Latency tests to various locations would be useful in addition to the speed tests

Nice idea. Maybe, if you open a Github issue and request the feature it will be added. Or, just fork it and add your own solution ofc :D

If you are looking for something like this in general, have a look at:

Ping otland.net

DNSTools lets you perform DNS lookups, pings, traceroutes, and other utilities, from several locations around the world.
dnstools.ws dnstools.ws

Ping, mtr, dig and TCP port check from multiple locations

The Best Ping+MTR combination Ever, plus TCP port checker and DNS diagnostics with dig from multiple locations.
ping.pe

Global Ping (ping.sx)

Ping any server from 134 global locations in parallel.
ping.sx ping.sx

I can't recommend it.

Tried to run it on 2 machines.
First failed on geekbench test. Probably because it has 1 GB RAM and geekbench requires 2 GB.
Second died during test (4 cores, 8 GB RAM). Can't connect to SSH anymore. I had to restart VPS from datacenter control panel.

I also don't like to run some random bash scripts from not trusted sources. One time it prints benchmark results. Another time it installs backdoor :(

Lol my script does not install a backdoor. Depending on your provider's abuse limits, your VM probably got cut off for excessive disk, internet, or cpu usage. The code is literally open source for you to inspect and evaluate yourself. Also for the geekbench test, just add some swap space or run it with the geekbench 4 flag (v4 is more forgiving on lower memory machines).
 
It's probably worth mentioning that this YABS script is well trusted by various hosting providers and community members of the other forum I mentioned in the OP. YABS benchmark has been run many times over at Post some YABS bench here (https://lowendspirit.com/discussion/592/post-some-yabs-bench-here/p1) and is generally trusted over there.

At least 2k posts of people sharing their YABS results and probably many more YABS run in other forums posts.

Everyone, of course, is entitled to their own choice of what software/code they want to run on their machine. Personally, I do trust @MasonR and YABS without a doubt.
