Result Interpretation
Rapyd Cloud performed notably better than WP Engine in this test, processing significantly more requests with fewer errors (except for Site F), indicating its strength in high-traffic scenarios and dynamic environments.

Result Interpretation
Rapyd Cloud performed notably better than WP Engine in this test, processing 1,429 times more requests and encountering errors much later. This suggests Rapyd Cloud is better suited for high-traffic, dynamic sites, providing stable performance. WP Engine tends to show more errors with increasing load, making it less than ideal to handle dynamic sites like eCommerce or eLearning that usually see occasional high-traffic situations.
