Timed HMMer Search
This test searches through the Pfam database of profile hidden markov models. The search finds the domain structure of Drosophila Sevenless protein. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
Fhourstones
This integer benchmark solves positions in the game of Connect-4, as played on a vertical 7x6 board. By default, it uses a 64Mb transposition table with the twobig replacement strategy. Positions are represented as 64-bit bitboards, and the hash function is computed using a single 64-bit modulo operation, giving 64-bit machines a slight edge. The alpha-beta searcher sorts moves dynamically based on the history heuristic. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
SciMark
TSCP
This is a performance test of TSCP, Tom Kerrigan's Simple Chess Program, which has a built-in performance benchmark. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
GraphicsMagick
Himeno Benchmark
The Himeno benchmark is a linear solver of pressure Poisson using a point-Jacobi method. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
ebizzy
This is a test of ebizzy, a program to generate workloads resembling web server workloads. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
Timed Linux Kernel Compilation
This test times how long it takes to build the Linux kernel. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
Timed PHP Compilation
This test times how long it takes to build PHP 5 with the Zend engine. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
C-Ray
Smallpt
Stockfish
AOBench
AOBench is a lightweight ambient occlusion renderer, written in C. The test profile is using a size of 2048 x 2048. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
Bullet Physics Engine
This is a benchmark of the Bullet Physics Engine. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
FLAC Audio Encoding
This test times how long it takes to encode a sample WAV file to FLAC format five times. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
LAME MP3 Encoding
LAME is an MP3 encoder licensed under the LGPL. This test measures the time required to encode a WAV file to MP3 format. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
Redis
Redis is an open-source data structure server. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
