linux command line utility can do anything, including the implementation of benchmarks, but the use of specific basic programs easier. These utilities allow you across different systems and can be configured to perform repeat tests.
These Linux benchmarking tool does not like their Windows equivalents, but allows you to easily compare different systems and evaluate their performance.
Hardinfo - CPU benchmark
Hardinfo not install on Ubuntu, but you can find "Hardinfo" in the Ubuntu Software Center and install the system profiler and benchmark applications. If you are using another Linux distribution, search your package manager to get "hardinfo" package.
After installation is complete, the analyzer and start the system from the benchmark application Dash.
Hardinfo display information about system hardware and its configuration. Generate reports using the function, you can save the report and select information - including benchmarks - you want to include.
Scroll to the bottom of the list, and select one of the six CPU benchmark to test your CPU. Hardinfo will compare your CPU and other CPU performance. If you want to compare between the CPU speed computer or decide overclocking results, then the CPU benchmark is useful.
GtkPerf - GTK + reference
GtkPerf is another benchmark tool that you find in ubuntu center software and other distributions package manager.
GtkPerf test performance GTK + graphics toolkit, used by the GNOME and ubuntu desktop applications. Use GtkPerf, can be measured in different GTK + theme. GTK different versions and the difference in performance between the different versions of the X server and graphics drivers +.
Start benchmark, GtkPerf GTK + widget execution operation, and the time to complete their execution.
The test can be repeated, so you can use GTK + GtkPerf test performance in multiple computer platforms.
Phoronix Test Suite - a comprehensive benchmarking
Benchmark Phoronix test suite is created by Phoronix website, to run for at Phoronix article found in tests can be reused test. It is itself. "For Linux is the most comprehensive benchmark test platform.", You'll find it, and it's his distribution of Linux package manager.
If you choose to submit and enable anonymous reporting features, the Phoronix Test Suite will represent your test results. When finished, you can choose whether to enable anonymous reporting.
Phoronix test suite provides benchmarking information and menu options, from.
To perform a single test, type 1. You will have a 126 test list for you to choose. If the test requires additional software, test suite will be automatically downloaded.
To perform a set of tests, type 2. There are 54 different test suite, from audio and video encoding and ray tracing to the network.
To perform complex system testing, type 3. The system comprises five test Test Complex: Apache benchmark for performance, performance for ray tracing, RAMspeed (two different configurations) to memory performance, and indicia.
The results can be uploaded to the server and compared OpenBenchmarking.org.
