SQLite
This is a simple benchmark of SQLite. At present this test profile just measures the time to perform a pre-defined number of insertions on an indexed database. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
Dbench
Dbench is a benchmark designed by the Samba project as a free alternative to netbench, but dbench contains only file-system calls for testing the disk performance. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
Compile Bench
Compilebench tries to age a filesystem by simulating some of the disk IO common in creating, compiling, patching, stating and reading kernel trees. It indirectly measures how well filesystems can maintain directory locality as the disk fills up and directories age. This current test is setup to use the makej mode with 10 initial directories Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
PostMark
This is a test of NetApp's PostMark benchmark designed to simulate small-file testing similar to the tasks endured by web and mail servers. This test profile will set PostMark to perform 25,000 transactions with 500 files simultaneously with the file sizes ranging between 5 and 512 kilobytes. 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.
PostgreSQL pgbench
This is a simple benchmark of PostgreSQL using pgbench. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
Git
This test measures the time needed to carry out some sample Git operations on an example, static repository that happens to be a copy of the GNOME GTK tool-kit repository. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
OSBench
OSBench is a collection of micro-benchmarks for measuring operating system primitives like time to create threads/processes, launching programs, creating files, and memory allocation. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
