I think I will try to post on here more to help people out, I have over 4 years of experience with Magento 2 community-edition. 4-year badge on here. I see a lot of people talk about speed issues on here. My first choice is to go with a dedicated server with no panel on it. I use Apache, MariaDB, Redis, and Magento php to fine-tune everything. My whole installation process is all scripted now.
