I don't find them all that bad..

SATA Raid5 (dedicated):
/dev/sda5:
Timing cached reads: 14716 MB in 1.99 seconds = 7376.59 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 322 MB in 3.00 seconds = 107.23 MB/sec


Digital ocean (VPS):
Timing cached reads: 11994 MB in 2.00 seconds = 6004.13 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 1172 MB in 3.00 seconds = 390.28 MB/sec


Local SSD (old shitty machine):
/dev/sdb1:
Timing cached reads: 2352 MB in 2.00 seconds = 1175.72 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 676 MB in 3.00 seconds = 225.01 MB/sec

Random VPS:
/dev/mapper/vg_web03-lv_root:
Timing cached reads: 5500 MB in 2.00 seconds = 2753.36 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 160 MB in 3.01 seconds = 53.12 MB/sec
