For CPU you will see CPU Model,Number of cores, CPU frequency and CPU performance bench.

For Memory you will see total amount of memory, total amount of swap and memory specific benchmarks.

For Hard disks you will see type of disk space HDD or SSD, partition and names, total size of disk space that available and input/output speeds.

For Network you will see the Internet connection speed the download rates to many data center in the world.

Most of the common problem is varying between website nor application development way or input / output storage speed or internet speed limited....
