Geekbench

Geekbench is a cross-platform benchmark that measures the performance of your computer's processor and memory.

Sysbench

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install sysbench
sysbench --num-threads=1 --test=cpu --cpu-max-prime=20000 --validate run
# sysbench version is 0.4.12, Ubuntu 16.04

sysbench --threads=1 cpu --cpu-max-prime=20000 --validate run
# sysbench version 1.0.11, Ubuntu 18.04

The following one was used to benchmark Raspberry Pi 32-bit vs 64-bit.

sysbench --threads=4 --test=cpu --cpu-max-prime=300000 run && 7za b

Two websites have a database for benchmarks.

Install 0.4.12 from source

For some reason, the threads option in version 1.0 does not work. See cpu test: single thread and multi-threads get the same result and Question about CPU benchmarking.

If we need to use version 0.4.12, we need to build from the source.

sudo apt install automake autoconf libtool libmysqlclient-dev libssl1.0.0 libssl-dev make

wget http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/repo/pkgs/sysbench/sysbench-0.4.12.tar.gz/3a6d54fdd3fe002328e4458206392b9d/sysbench-0.4.12.tar.gz
tar zxvf sysbench-0.4.12.tar.gz
cd sysbench-0.4.12/
./autogen.sh
./configure --without-mysql
sudo make # Cannot establish any listening sockets - Make sure an X server isn't already running(EE)
          # ...
          # ../libtool: line 5281: : command not found
sudo make install

Run sysbench 0.4.12 using singularity

  1. Install singularity either from pre-build binary or source (See the 'Docs' under https://sylabs.io/singularity/)
  2. Create a new sub and build a container
  3. 'Execute' the container
# step 1: the following method installed an old version (2.6.1) of singularity
#         
$ wget -O- http://neuro.debian.net/lists/bionic.us-nh.libre | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/neurodebian.sources.list
$ sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver hkp://pool.sks-keyservers.net:80 0xA5D32F012649A5A9
$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt-get install singularity-container
$ singularity --version

# step 2
$ mkdir sysbench; cd sysbench
$ nano sysbench.def 
$ sudo singularity build sysbench0412 sysbench.def

# step 3
$ singularity exec sysbench0412 sysbench --num-threads=1 --test=cpu --cpu-max-prime=20000 --validate run
$ singularity exec sysbench0412 sysbench --num-threads=4 --test=cpu --cpu-max-prime=20000 --validate run

where the definition file <Singularity> (recall Ubuntu 16.04 still has the old version of sysbench) is

$ cat sysbench.def
Bootstrap: docker
From: ubuntu:16.04

%post
    apt-get -y update
    apt-get -y install sysbench

%environment
    export LC_ALL=C
    export PATH=/usr/games:$PATH

Interestingly, the container build using singularity 2.6.1 also works on singularity 3.5.0 (compile from source).

Version 1.0.X

I find the correct way to use the utility is to specify the all threads and use the time command.

$ time sysbench --threads=4 cpu --cpu-max-prime=20000 --validate run
sysbench 1.0.11 (using system LuaJIT 2.1.0-beta3)

Running the test with following options:
Number of threads: 4

Raspberry Pi 4B vs Jetson Nano

On Ubuntu, use one of the following commands to find out the graphics card information.

  • sudo lshw -C display
  • lspci | grep -i --color 'vga\|3d\|2d'

Disk speed test

dd

Linux and Unix Test Disk I/O Performance With dd Command

  • Test write speed
$ sync; dd if=/dev/zero of=tempfile bs=1M count=1024; sync

# External storage
$ sync; dd if=/dev/zero of=/media/user/MyUSB/tempfile bs=1M count=1024; sync
  • Test read speed
$ dd if=tempfile of=/dev/null bs=1M count=1024  # do not use this

# Clear the cache
$ sudo /sbin/sysctl -w vm.drop_caches=3
$ dd if=tempfile of=/dev/null bs=1M count=1024  # consistent with 'disks' utility

hdparm

hdparm is a Linux command line utility that allows to set and view hardware parameters of hard disk drives. -t and --direct measures data transfer rate but bypassing hard drive's buffer cache memory thus reading directly from the disk.

sudo hdparm -t --direct /dev/mmcblk0p1  # eg internal
sudo hdparm -t --direct /dev/mmcblk0p2  # eg sd card
sudo hdparm -t --direct /dev/sda1       # eg USB 
sudo hdparm -Tt /dev/sda
sudo hdparm -t /dev/vdb                 # Measure Hard Disk Device Read Speed
sudo hdparm -T /dev/vdb                 # Measure Hard Disk Cache Read Speed
# Reading cache will give more higher performance than reading 
# from disk because only the cached data will be used and tested.

hdparm -I /dev/sda                      # show information about disk

Example: Silicon-power 512GB ssd. The box says it can read up to 560MB/s & write up to 530MB/s. Below is a test result running on NUC Pentium Silver J5005 CPU.

$ sudo hdparm -t --direct /dev/sdb1
[sudo] password for brb: 

/dev/sdb1:
 Timing O_DIRECT disk reads: 1068 MB in  3.01 seconds = 355.34 MB/sec

On UDOO x86, the SSD is 341.77MB/s. The eMMC speed on UDOO x86 is 130MB/s. A portable HDD has a speed 24-29MB/s.

On phenom server, the HDD speed is 150MB/s (WD black WD4003FZEX 4TB, 2013) and 68MB/s (ST ST3640323as 640GB, 2014).

On Raspberry Pi 3B (sudo apt-get install hdparm), the microSD speed is 22MB/s only. The same SSD plugged to a USB2 port has a speed 34MB/s only.

on Dell t3600 Xeon E5-1650, the HDD (WD Blue 3TB 5400 rpm) speed is 50MB/s and the external USB (WD My Book 4T) is 25MB/s (216.50 kB/s before waking up).
