X-BeenThere: freebsd-current@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: Discussions about the use of FreeBSD-current List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 10 Feb 2005 08:31:31 -0000 Since the topic of general system benchmarks and MySQL benchmarks has come up again recently, I was wondering if anyone is aware of any X11 benchmarks. While X11 performance would certainly be greatly dependent on your video card, I could also see how it would stress IPC and the scheduler, as the benchmark application handed off commands to the X11 server. So, if there's a good benchmark, it would be useful in comparing 5.3 to 4.11 to linux, etc. The only X11 benchmark I could find in my quick searching is xbench, which is very old and doesn't appear to want to build (I didn't try to figure out why, I hate makefiles.) http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/X11/contrib/utilities/xbench-0.2-src.tar.gz Is anyone aware of something more modern?
