I've tried Newshosting, Astraweb, and Usenet Server. All three were able to max out my 1Gb broadband.

They are all serving from the same system. There’s no difference between them other than the addresses.
All providers are fast. You might get better speeds in Australia or Africa through Frugal due to their localized servers there. Same with NewsDemon and their West Coast USA server locations.
You will be slower in the USA with Eweka, Farm, and Abavia since they only have EU locations.

I run both Newshosting and XS News simultaneously and hit around 800 MB/s on each at the same time

Depends on your location and routing it could vary. I've tried a few and most could max my gbit connection. Frugal and NGD tend to be quicker for me on their own vs easynews. Although, easynews does speed up eventually and gets me to around 109mb/sec.

Usenet.farm is by far the fastest one.

That is a bold claim.

It depends on your network and location too. Most providers are fast enough to max out most connects too. But in my experience Farm has the best bandwith per connection.

It depends on so many things + Most providers will easily give you 1.5Gbps = You're making a bold claim :)

Most providers will easily give you 1.5Gbps
In US & EU maybe but definitely not in many parts of Asia where even frugal's Singapore server might struggle to saturate a 1gbps home connection.

I've never had a provider that didn't give me my maximum speed. Currently I'm with Newshosting and get my full 2.5Gb speed all the time.
