Nexuiz runs on both the Intel and ATI mesa stack (unbelivably slow on the intel one, but very playable on the mobility x1600), so that is probably a very valid benchmark.
I wonder if we could get a nexuiz download to be smaller than the 600-odd megabyte that the current one is?
Maybe ask the nexuiz guys if they can make a smaller benchmark distribution?

We have a test candidate !
If anyone could run their systems against this, it would be great. Just do as below, and please post a link to the results here
Code:phoronix-test-suite benchmark mendieta-4549-6954-342
It's not the last word (we can still change/modify/improve the test), but here are my thoughts:
- Added fio "server load" test, which does lots of random read/writes all over the place. This should give the disk a run for its money :-) I think it's along the lines of Grigi's suggestion.
- Since we have a separate test for the disk, I used openssl for a multicore cpu test. It runs faster, it's a small download, and scales very well with CPU speed and number of processors
- For 3D I am using Norsetto-Shadow, because it's a small download. It won't push the newest cards to the limit, but it should run on pretty anything, and should scale with GPU speed and bandwidth (the size of the GPU memory won't matter).I think it's a lot better than glxgears, but small/fast enough to fit the goal of this test.
- For 2D I think the gtkperf combobox tests are more stable and scale better than the gtkperf "draw" tests, so I used one of these.

Norsetto Shadows didn't work on it. That's really not a good test.Michael Larabel

Thanks for running this!

What happened with fio? Do you have little space left in the disk?
I wonder why gtkperf was so close in both tests. I thought the Radeon HD 3200 would beat the mini's Intel embedded, maybe it's ok.

Originally posted by mendieta View PostMichael: let's summarize where we are, and there are a few questions that you haven't seen above:
- CPU_S = Single Core CPU plus RAM. Test: Scimark2, Composite test [1]
- CPU_M = Multiple Core CPU plus disk. Test: build-apache, one pass [2]
- GUI_2D = 2D Performance. Test: gtkperf draw circles. [3]
- GUI_3D = 3D Perfomance. Test: Unigine Sanctuary [4]
The global test scores would be as follows:
- system-quick = power(CPU_S*CPU_M*GUI_2D*GUI_3D, 1/4)
- system-quick-cli = power(CPU_S*CPU_M, 1/2)
- system-quick-gui = power(GUI_2D*GUI_3D, 1/2)
Note that the score of system-quick is also the geometric mean of the other two. When you run a test, besides the global score we can show the individual scores, like in geekbench: a big number, and details beneath.
Questions:
[1] Does the composite aggregate all the individual tests od scimark2? That would be best.
[2] The regular test for build-apache builds it 3 times, way too long for this. Can we build it just once in this test?
[3] Draw circle may be limited. Can we run all "draw" tests sequentially and aggregate? (maybe not)
[4] What do we do in cases where Unigine fails? (older cards). Maybe we should only show the cpu score in that case.
I think we are getting there. Best!
keep it up
