Introduction: Is your VPS also "like a dragon during the day and a worm at night"?
Many friends have encountered this situation: a VPS is very fast during non-peak hours, but when it comes to the network peak at 8 or 9 in the evening, the speed drops sharply to single digits and is almost unusable.Peak periodandOff-peak speed comparisonWe have such a "typical case" in our study.
But is the problem really just the "circuit"? This article will tell you through an interesting experiment:Sometimes, changing the "protocol" can bring this "junk" line back to life.

Experiment: Peak performance of the same server under different protocols
- Subjects: In the previous video, the download speed of CC (CloudCone) server was only in single digits during the evening peak.
- Experimental time: 9pm.
| Testing Protocol | Peak download speed | Performance Analysis |
|---|---|---|
| VLESS + Reality | < 10 Mbps | fail – Verified that the server is indeed congested under this protocol. |
| Hysteria2 | Very high (Specific values not given) | Resurrection – Significantly faster and fully usable. |
| TUIC | Very high (Even better than other lines) | Surprising performance – Demonstrated strong anti-congestion capabilities of the protocol. |
Experimental conclusion: During peak network congestion, traditional proxy protocols (such as VLESS/VMess) may struggle to secure bandwidth due to poor network conditions and severe packet loss. However, newer UDP (QUIC)-based protocols like Hysteria2 and TUIC, with their inherent congestion control algorithms, can maintain high-speed, stable connections in even these challenging network conditions.
[Tutorial] How to deploy multiple "god-level" protocols with one click?
To achieve the above effect, we do not need to make complex configurations. It is recommended to use "Yong Ge"of Sing-box One-click installation script.
- Script advantages: Compared to the X-UI script that can only install one protocol at a time, the Sing-box script can build four mainstream protocols for you at once: VLESS, VMess, Hysteria2, and TUIC, saving time and effort.
- **Installation method:**: Search for "Yongge Kankankan" singbox script.
Advanced gameplay: From "line optimization" to "protocol optimization"
This experiment tells us that we can have a broader approach to optimizing VPS performance. In addition to spending a high price to purchase optimized lines such as CN2 GIA, or using methods such as preferred IP, CDN acceleration, and transit services,Select and use more advanced proxy protocols, which is one of the optimization methods with the lowest cost and fastest effect.
You can even combine the multi-protocol provided by Sing-box scripts with the WARP/Psiphon traffic diversion function of X-UI to create an extremely powerful and flexible personalized network solution.
Many people commenting on VPS speed tests initially attribute the problem to the connection. As you mentioned, the key is the protocol choice. Different protocols can perform very differently during peak hours, and it's easy to be misled if you're not paying attention. Your article reminds everyone to troubleshoot the problem from its source, rather than simply changing the connection. This is particularly valuable.
