Your sed script probably doesn't do what you want it to. The \( and \) should be in the same command because they are used for grouping. If you are trying to replace literal parentheses with nothing, take away the backslashes (and probably the .* and especially the erroneous last * after the closing parenthesis). Or better still, use tr -d '()' < file or the near-equivalent sed 's/[()]//g'

NAME
Xmark - summarize x11perf results
SYNTAX
Xmark datafile
DESCRIPTION
Xmark is a shell script that reads the indicated datafile and compiles a benchmark which it writes to standard output. It writes three
numbers:
A weighted performance number for the x11perf results.
A weighted performance number for a standard SparcStation 1, with SunOS 4.1.2, X11R5 Xsun, and a CG3 dumb Color Frame Buffer.
The Xmark, which is the ratio of the two numbers above.
The datafile must be an ordinary file, produced by x11perf in the following way:
x11perf -display display -v1.3 -rop GXcopy GXxor -all > datafile
It is possible to run the GXcopy and GXxor tests separately, as long as they are concatenated to the same output file:
x11perf -display display -v1.3 -rop GXcopy -all > datafile
x11perf -display display -v1.3 -rop GXxor -all >> datafile
or
x11perf -display display -v1.3 -rop GXxor -all > datafile
x11perf -display display -v1.3 -rop GXcopy -all >> datafile
FILES
temp.$$
Temporary file created in the current directory, deleted after use.
