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.
Flexible IO Tester
Fio is an advanced disk benchmark that depends upon the kernel's AIO access library. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
FS-Mark
FS_Mark is designed to test a system's file-system performance. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
IOR
IOR is a parallel I/O storage benchmark. 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.
MariaDB
This is a MariaDB MySQL database server benchmark making use of mysqlslap. 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.
Apache Cassandra
This is a benchmark of the Apache Cassandra NoSQL database management system making use of cassandra-stress. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
Facebook RocksDB
This is a benchmark of Facebook's RocksDB as an embeddable persistent key-value store for fast storage based on Google's LevelDB. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
Systemd Total Boot Time
This test uses systemd-analyze to report the entire boot time. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
