OS: Ubuntu 13.10, Kernel: 3.11.0-4-generic (x86_64), Desktop: Unity 7.1.0, Display Server: X Server 1.14.2.901 (1.14.3 RC 1), Display Driver: intel 2.21.14, OpenGL: 3.1 Mesa 9.2.0, Compiler: GCC 4.9.0 20130731, File-System: ext4, Screen Resolution: 1920x1080
This test runs the ANSI C version of SciMark 2.0, which is a benchmark for scientific and numerical computing developed by programmers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology. This test is made up of Fast Foruier Transform, Jacobi Successive Over-relaxation, Monte Carlo, Sparse Matrix Multiply, and dense LU matrix factorization benchmarks. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
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.
The Himeno benchmark is a linear solver of pressure Poisson using a point-Jacobi method. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
This is a test of the OpenMP version of a test that solves the N-queens problem. The board problem size is 18. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
This is a test of C-Ray, a simple raytracer designed to test the floating-point CPU performance. This test is multi-threaded (16 threads per core), will shoot 8 rays per pixel for anti-aliasing, and will generate a 1600 x 1200 image. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
Smallpt is a C++ global illumination renderer written in less than 100 lines of code. Global illumination is done via unbiased Monte Carlo path tracing and there is multi-threading support via the OpenMP library. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
