Introduction
We have two tools for benchmarking our servers, which are Sysbench and Geekbench. The two tools were tested on pollock. Sysbench is useful for evaluating the basic performance of the machine, while Geekbench is able to provide more details of the machine even with its free features(Geekbench has paid features, but they are not important in our cases).
How to install
Sysbench: Depending on the OS. On centos: yum install sysbench
Geekbench: wget https://www.geekbench.com/download/linux/ Untar the tarball
How to Use
A bash script of using sysbench(tested on pollock):
- #!/bin/bash
- sysbench cpu --cpu-max-prime=20000 run >> Benchmark.txt
- sysbench fileio --file-total-size=150G prepare >> Benchmark.txt
- sysbench fileio --file-total-size=150G --file-test-mode=rndrw --init-rng=on --max-time=300 --max-**requests=0 run >> Benchmark.txt
- sysbench memory --threads=2 run >> Benchmark.txt
The script of using Geekbench is at /mount/pollock/software/geekbench
A more detailed description of the two tools could be found at https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-benchmark-your-linux-system
For statistical profiling of a program: Cluster:Gprof
