This test will just idle the system for the specified amount of time. This test is of benefit if paired with the system_monitor module to monitor the system sensors, battery consumption, etc while the system is idling. This also can be used just as a simple test profile to understand how the Phoronix Test Suite works.
To run this test with the Phoronix Test Suite, the basic command is: phoronix-test-suite benchmark idle.
* Uploading of benchmark result data to OpenBenchmarking.org is always optional (opt-in) via the Phoronix Test Suite for users wishing to share their results publicly. ** Data based on those opting to upload their test results to OpenBenchmarking.org and users enabling the opt-in anonymous statistics reporting while running benchmarks from an Internet-connected platform. *** Test profile page view reporting began March 2021. Data updated weekly as of 2 October 2023.
