In 2013, the usefulness of the scores from earlier versions of Geekbench (up to version 3) was heavily disputed by Linus Torvalds in an online forum. Linus' concerns that Geekbench combined disparate benchmarks into a single score [ 10 ] were addressed in Geekbench 4 by splitting integer, floating point, and crypto into sub-scores.
Apdex (Application Performance Index) is an open standard developed by an alliance of companies for measuring performance of software applications in computing.Its purpose is to convert measurements into insights about user satisfaction, by specifying a uniform way to analyze and report on the degree to which measured performance meets user expectations.
Cinebench is a cross-platform test suite which tests a computer's hardware capabilities. It can be used as a test for Cinema 4D's 3D modeling, animation, motion graphic and rendering performance on multiple CPU cores. The program "target[s] a certain niche and [is] better suited for high-end desktop and workstation platforms".
A typical modern set-top box, along with its remote control - pictured here a digital terrestrial TV receiver by TEAC.
