Time To First Bite is 3.5 secs on a fresh server TTFB

Hey folks, I’m testing one script speed and it looks crazy.

Contabo CloudVPS S (4 vcores) with HestiaCP php8.3 has 3.5 sec TTFB.
Namecheap hosting! has 0.5s TTFB

Checked mysql requests - nothing particular, php limits, etc - everything is more than enough.

What’s the deal? Can usual VPS even compete with hosting within even higher price?

3.5 is way to high…
