This is a simple test of the x265 encoder run on the CPU with 1080p and 4K options for H.265 video encode performance with x265. This system/x265 test profile relies on the OS provided x265 package as opposed to the existing pts/x265 test profile that builds the same version of x265 from the upstream source code.
Below is an overview of the generalized performance for components where there is sufficient statistically significant data based upon user-uploaded results. It is important to keep in mind particularly in the Linux/open-source space there can be vastly different OS configurations, with this overview intended to offer just general guidance as to the performance expectations.
