GNU MPC
GNU MPC is a C library for the arithmetic of complex numbers. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
Rodinia
Rodinia is a suite focused upon accelerating compute-intensive applications with accelerators. CUDA, OpenMP, and OpenCL parallel models are supported by the included applications. This profile utilizes the OpenCL and OpenMP test binaries at the moment. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
FFTE
FFTE is a package by Daisuke Takahashi to compute Discrete Fourier Transforms of 1-, 2- and 3- dimensional sequences of length (2^p)*(3^q)*(5^r). Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
Go Benchmarks
Benchmark for monitoring real time performance of the Go implementation for HTTP, JSON and garbage testing per iteration. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
Bork File Encrypter
Bork is a small, cross-platform file encryption utility. It is written in Java and designed to be included along with the files it encrypts for long-term storage. This test measures the amount of time it takes to encrypt a sample file. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
BYTE Unix Benchmark
This is a test of BYTE. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
Stockfish
This is a test of Stockfish, an advanced C++11 chess benchmark that can scale up to 128 CPU cores. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
Timed ImageMagick Compilation
This test times how long it takes to build ImageMagick. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
Timed LLVM Compilation
This test times how long it takes to build the LLVM compiler. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
C-Ray
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.
POV-Ray
This is a test of POV-Ray, the Persistence of Vision Raytracer. POV-Ray is used to create 3D graphics using ray-tracing. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
Primesieve
Primesieve generates prime numbers using a highly optimized sieve of Eratosthenes implementation. Primesieve benchmarks the CPU's L1/L2 cache performance. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
Rust Prime Benchmark
Based on petehunt/rust-benchmark, this is a prime number benchmark that is multi-threaded and written in Rustlang. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
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.
Cython benchmark
Stress benchmark tests to measure time consumed by cython code Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
OpenSSL
OpenSSL is an open-source toolkit that implements SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) and TLS (Transport Layer Security) protocols. This test measures the RSA 4096-bit performance of OpenSSL. 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.
Timed Linux Kernel Compilation
This test times how long it takes to build the Linux kernel in a default configuration. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
Hackbench
This is a benchmark of Hackbench, a test of the Linux kernel scheduler. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
Stress-NG
Stress-NG is a Linux stress tool developed by Colin King of Canonical. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
PyBench
This test profile reports the total time of the different average timed test results from PyBench. PyBench reports average test times for different functions such as BuiltinFunctionCalls and NestedForLoops, with this total result providing a rough estimate as to Python's average performance on a given system. This test profile runs PyBench each time for 20 rounds. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
PHPBench
PHPBench is a benchmark suite for PHP. It performs a large number of simple tests in order to bench various aspects of the PHP interpreter. PHPBench can be used to compare hardware, operating systems, PHP versions, PHP accelerators and caches, compiler options, etc. The number of iterations used is 1,000,000. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
