Here is a quick view on the read and write results on Digital Ocean & OpenVZ:

The above results show that the Digital Ocean SSD does make it faster to write to the disk while the Reads are better in OpenVZ VPS that I own. This difference might change depending on the overhead of the Hardware node which would be serving my VPS/CloudVPS. More to digg out in coming days.
