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 sysbench --threads=1 --test=cpu --cpu-max-prime=20000 --validate run # sysbench version 1.0.11
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

Note that
- The /proc/cpuinfo shows only the current CPU freq. If we specify all threads when we ran the sysbench, we will be able to see the CPU MHz changed when we run watch.
watch -n1 "cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep \"MHz\""
- To get the maximum freq, follow this
sudo cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/*/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq
- for the Xeon(R) E5-1650 @ 3.2GHz,

Disk speed test
- Disk Speed Test (Read/Write): HDD, SSD Performance in Linux
- GUI method: use the 'disks' (gnome-disks) utility in Ubuntu
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. 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
