lmbench is a micro-benchmark suite designed to focus attention
|
|
on the basic building blocks of many common system applications,
|
|
such as databases, simulations, software development, and
|
|
networking. In almost all cases, the individual tests are
|
|
the result of analysis and isolation of a customer's actual
|
|
performance problem. These tools can be, and currently are,
|
|
used to compare different system implementations from different
|
|
vendors. The tools have been and continue to be used by processor
|
|
designers. In several cases, the benchmarks have uncovered
|
|
previously unknown bugs and design flaws. lmbench includes an
|
|
extensible database of results from systems current as of late 1995.
