Sysbench can run benchmark tests specified in command line flags or in shell scripts. The type of test to run is specified in the command options and would be one of: cpu: CPU performance test; fileio: File I/O test; memory: Memory speed test; mutex: Mutex performance test; threads: Threads subsystem performance test
Princeton Application Repository for Shared-Memory Computers (PARSEC) is a benchmark suite composed of multi-threaded emerging workloads that is used to evaluate and develop next-generation chip-multiprocessors. It was collaboratively created by Intel and Princeton University to drive research efforts on future computer systems.
In some embedded systems, where memory is a significant cost, better code density can significantly reduce costs. Vendor benchmarks tend to ignore requirements for development, test, and disaster recovery computing capacity. Vendors only like to report what might be narrowly required for production capacity in order to make their initial ...
Although the performance attributes of interest are not specific to any particular computer architecture, the reference implementation of the HPC Challenge Benchmark in C and MPI assumes that the system under test is a cluster of shared memory multiprocessor systems connected by a network. Due to this assumption of a hierarchical system ...
The LINPACK benchmark report appeared first in 1979 as an appendix to the LINPACK user's manual. [4]LINPACK was designed to help users estimate the time required by their systems to solve a problem using the LINPACK package, by extrapolating the performance results obtained by 23 different computers solving a matrix problem of size 100.
A set of benchmarks allows you to test: memory read — tests the speed of data transfer from RAM to the processor. memory write — tests the speed of data transfer from the processor to RAM. memory copy — tests the speed of data transfer from one memory cell to another via the processor's cache.
The Work benchmark test includes a set of workloads that reflect common tasks for an office environment. The Applications benchmark measures system performance using applications from Adobe Creative Suite and Microsoft Office. The Storage benchmark is a component level test for measuring the performance of SSDs, HDDs and hybrid drives.
The benchmark employs 8 test procedures, with three executing standard floating point calculations, two with such as COS or EXP functions, one each for integer arithmetic, branching or memory assignments. Output from the original comprised parameters used for each test, numeric results produced and the overall KWIPS performance rating.
