Benchmarks

We cannot benchmark ipinfo.io, because it is not open source so we cannot test it in localhost. But, this is what hey tells us after doing 10000 requests to localhost:

• The average request completed in 15 milliseconds.
• 95% of the Requests were completed under 31 milliseconds.
• 10,000 Requests were completed with 200 request concurrency in under 1 second (.899 Seconds)

Now, what does this tell us? It is fast. SO fast, that it is negligable to your application. If you need something FASTER, you should be paying for a service.
