So I guess my main question regarding if there's some type of a cache I should be clearing - the answer would be no?

I got better results than you for openSUSE by running the EXT4 file system on several tests - PyBench, PHPBench, and PolyBench. I restarted after PyBench and PHPBench, then ran PolyBench and AOBench back-to-back and the system crapped out.
But that's been my experience with PTS so far, is that I need to restart after every test. As I said, I haven't read the manual, I was thinking maybe there was a cache I should be clearing. Or, it could just be that tests like AOBench are too stressful for this old laptop.

I find that my system slows to a crawl or even locks up if I try to run 2-3 different PTS tests back to back without a reboot. Maybe there's some cache I should be clearing. I should probably RTFM and stop asking dumb questions.
