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.
To run this test with the Phoronix Test Suite, the basic command is: phoronix-test-suite benchmark osbench.
* 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 21 April 2024.
Revision History
pts/osbench-1.0.2 [View Source] Tue, 22 Sep 2020 10:51:54 GMT Set TestType to OS rather than system.
pts/osbench-1.0.1 [View Source] Thu, 22 Mar 2018 12:23:09 GMT Create target directory on Windows to allow the create_files test to run.
pts/osbench-1.0.0 [View Source] Thu, 22 Mar 2018 11:05:45 GMT Initial commit of OSBench OS micro-benchmarks test profile.
OpenBenchmarking.org metrics for this test profile configuration based on 1,317 public results since 22 March 2018 with the latest data as of 6 November 2023.
Based on OpenBenchmarking.org data, the selected test / test configuration (OSBench - Test: Launch Programs) has an average run-time of 2 minutes. By default this test profile is set to run at least 3 times but may increase if the standard deviation exceeds pre-defined defaults or other calculations deem additional runs necessary for greater statistical accuracy of the result.
Based on public OpenBenchmarking.org results, the selected test / test configuration has an average standard deviation of 1.8%.
