I have a lot of experience with benchmarking Linux servers, though not Gentoo-specific. Do you have some specific questions? In Portage, there is a whole category of benchmarks, called "app/benchmarks".
$ esearch -Fn ^app-benchmarks|grep \*|more * app-benchmarks/acovea * app-benchmarks/bashmark * app-benchmarks/bonnie * app-benchmarks/bonnie++ * app-benchmarks/contest * app-benchmarks/cpuburn * app-benchmarks/dbench * app-benchmarks/iozone * app-benchmarks/jmeter * app-benchmarks/lmbench * app-benchmarks/ltp * app-benchmarks/nbench * app-benchmarks/piozone * app-benchmarks/pipebench * app-benchmarks/siege * app-benchmarks/stress * app-benchmarks/tiobench * app-benchmarks/volanomark * app-benchmarks/xfbsuite For I/O, I recommend "bonnie++" and "iozone". For network, try * net-analyzer/netperf * net-misc/iperf I'm not sure what to recommend for CPU; it's really application-dependent. What is the task these servers are going to perform for a living? khurram bhatti wrote: >on gentoo servers we to perform CPU, I/O, Network (100Mbps, 1Gbps) >benchmarks, any one's experience with it ? > >-khurram > >---------------------------------------------------------------- >This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program. > > > -- [email protected] mailing list
