Linux Processing Benchmarks ?
Hello everyone.
Does anyone know where to I could find published benchmarks for how a Linux box performs. It would be nice if I could find a comparison to the Windows OS.
Thanks,
Lance

Hi,
I was trying to build Linux Benchmarks with latest Intel C++ Compiler.

The problem is Intel compiler's advanced optimization option (-ipo) optimizes much more than expected and this... (50 Replies)

SPEED(1SSL) OpenSSL SPEED(1SSL)
NAME
openssl-speed, speed - test library performance
SYNOPSIS
openssl speed [-help] [-engine id] [-elapsed] [-evp algo] [-decrypt] [-rand file...] [-writerand file] [-primes num] [-seconds num]
[-bytes num] [algorithm...]
DESCRIPTION
This command is used to test the performance of cryptographic algorithms. To see the list of supported algorithms, use the list
--digest-commands or list --cipher-commands command. The global CSPRNG is denoted by the rand algorithm name.
OPTIONS
-help
Print out a usage message.
-engine id
Specifying an engine (by its unique id string) will cause speed to attempt to obtain a functional reference to the specified engine,
thus initialising it if needed. The engine will then be set as the default for all available algorithms.
-elapsed
When calculating operations- or bytes-per-second, use wall-clock time instead of CPU user time as divisor. It can be useful when
testing speed of hardware engines.
-evp algo
Use the specified cipher or message digest algorithm via the EVP interface. If algo is an AEAD cipher, then you can pass <-aead> to
benchmark a TLS-like sequence. And if algo is a multi-buffer capable cipher, e.g. aes-128-cbc-hmac-sha1, then -mb will time multi-
buffer operation.
-decrypt
Time the decryption instead of encryption. Affects only the EVP testing.
-rand file...
A file or files containing random data used to seed the random number generator. Multiple files can be specified separated by an OS-
dependent character. The separator is ; for MS-Windows, , for OpenVMS, and : for all others.
[-writerand file]
Writes random data to the specified file upon exit. This can be used with a subsequent -rand flag.
-primes num
Generate a num-prime RSA key and use it to run the benchmarks. This option is only effective if RSA algorithm is specified to test.
-seconds num
Run benchmarks for num seconds.
-bytes num
Run benchmarks on num-byte buffers. Affects ciphers, digests and the CSPRNG.
[zero or more test algorithms]
If any options are given, speed tests those algorithms, otherwise a pre-compiled grand selection is tested.
