  2. Computer performance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_performance

    In computing, computer performance is the amount of useful work accomplished by a computer system. Outside of specific contexts, computer performance is estimated in terms of accuracy, efficiency and speed of executing computer program instructions. When it comes to high computer performance, one or more of the following factors might be involved:

  3. Benchmark (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benchmark_(computing)

    A graphical demo running as a benchmark of the OGRE engine. In computing, a benchmark is the act of running a computer program, a set of programs, or other operations, in order to assess the relative performance of an object, normally by running a number of standard tests and trials against it.

  4. SPECint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SPECint

    SPEC INT is a computer benchmark specification for CPU integer processing power. It is maintained by the Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation (SPEC). SPEC INT is the integer performance testing component of the SPEC test suite. The first SPEC test suite, CPU92, was announced in 1992. It was followed by CPU95, CPU2000, and CPU2006.

  5. System profiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_profiler

    A system profiler is a program that can provide detailed information about the software installed and hardware attached to a computer. Typically workstations and personal computers have had system profilers as a common feature since the mid-1990s. However, system profilers exist on most computing architectures in some form or other.

  6. LINPACK benchmarks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LINPACK_benchmarks

    The performance of a computer is a complex issue that depends on many interconnected variables. The performance measured by the LINPACK benchmark consists of the number of 64-bit floating-point operations, generally additions and multiplications, a computer can perform per second, also known as FLOPS. However, a computer's performance when ...

    CPU Performance; Memory Performance; Disk Performance (includes devices such as Solid-state drives) While running, the tests show only a progress bar and a "working" background animation. Aero Glass is deactivated on Windows Vista and Windows 7 during testing so the tool can properly assess the graphics card and CPU.

  9. Hardware acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_acceleration

    Hardware acceleration is the use of computer hardware designed to perform specific functions more efficiently when compared to software running on a general-purpose central processing unit (CPU). Any transformation of data that can be calculated in software running on a generic CPU can also be calculated in custom-made hardware, or in some mix ...
