Many operating systems, for example Windows, [1] Linux, [2] and macOS [3] will run an idle task, which is a special task loaded by the OS scheduler on a CPU when there is nothing for the CPU to do. The idle task can be hard-coded into the scheduler, or it can be implemented as a separate task with the lowest possible priority.
AIDA64 leaps forwards by adding a collection of 64 bits processor and memory benchmarks, an optimized ZLib data compression and an enhanced set of fractal computational floating-point benchmarks, a new CPU benchmark method to determine cryptographic hash value calculation performance, support for SSDs (SSD specific SMART entries, etc.) and ...
CPU-Z is more comprehensive in virtually all areas compared to the tools provided in the Windows to identify various hardware components, and thus assists in identifying certain components without the need of opening the case; particularly the core revision and RAM clock rate. It also provides information on the system's GPU.
time (Unix) - can be used to determine the run time of a program, separately counting user time vs. system time, and CPU time vs. clock time. [1] timem (Unix) - can be used to determine the wall-clock time, CPU time, and CPU utilization similar to time (Unix) but supports numerous extensions.

In Windows Vista and 7: "Minimum processor state" found in "Processor Power Management" of "Advanced Power Settings" should be lower than "100%". Also In Windows Vista and 7 the " Power Saver " power profile allows much lower power state (frequency and voltage) than in the " High Performance " power state.
