I would like to benchmark my computer before applying patches for the recent Intel fiasco.
Suggestions?
If I see it correct, this comes with it's own kernel to boot, so it could give information on the bare computers capacities but not on how it runs with a given configuration/kernel?
Interesting would be something to run on the current running system as is, and, for example, before/after updating the kernel or using the "switch on/off commands" of Dave Platter's post. This would then give hints about the performance differences.
Or did I get it wrong?
I had a look at the link and found that one of the programs mentioned stress is available as stress-ng but all it really does is stress the cpu so I'm trying two tests myself, an rpmbuild operation and a large file transfer between two physical disks using "time" then recording the results. I'm now going to boot into the updated kernel. Dave P
Well the timings for the rpmbuild operation which I think stresses the most didn't show any discernible differences and the file copy gained 2 seconds somehow, most probably due to the reboot. Be interesting to see if someone else can find a difference.
