Example run and results</A></H2> <P> <P>The LBT was run on my home machine, a Pentium-class Linux box that I put together myself and that I used to write this HOWTO. Here is the LBT Report Form for this system: <PRE> LINUX BENCHMARKING TOOLKIT REPORT FORM </PRE> <PRE> CPU </PRE> <PRE> == </PRE> <PRE> Vendor: Cyrix/IBM </PRE> <PRE> Model: 6x86L P166+ </PRE> <PRE> Core clock: 133 MHz </PRE> <PRE> Motherboard vendor: Elite Computer Systems (ECS) </PRE> <PRE> Mbd. model: P5VX-Be </PRE> <PRE> Mbd. chipset: Intel VX </PRE> <PRE> Bus type: PCI </PRE> <PRE> Bus clock: 33 MHz </PRE> <PRE> Cache total: 256 KB </PRE> <PRE> Cache type/speed: Pipeline burst 6 ns </PRE> <PRE> SMP (number of processors): 1 </PRE> <PRE> RAM </PRE> <PRE> ==== </PRE> <PRE> Total: 32 MB </PRE> <PRE> Type: EDO SIMMs </PRE> <PRE> Speed: 60 ns </PRE> <PRE> Disk </PRE> <PRE> ==== </PRE> <PRE> Vendor: IBM </PRE> <PRE> Model: IBM-DAQA-33240 </PRE> <PRE> Size: 3.2 GB </PRE> <PRE> Interface: EIDE </PRE> <PRE> Driver/Settings: Bus Master DMA mode 2 </PRE> <PRE> Video board </PRE> <PRE> =========== </PRE> <PRE> Vendor: Generic S3 </PRE> <PRE> Model: Trio64-V2 </PRE> <PRE> Bus: PCI </PRE> <PRE> Video RAM type: EDO DRAM </PRE> <PRE> Video RAM total: 2 MB </PRE> <PRE> X server vendor: XFree86 </PRE> <PRE> X server version: 3.3 </PRE> <PRE> X server chipset choice: S3 accelerated </PRE> <PRE> Resolution/vert. refresh rate: 1152x864 @ 70 Hz </PRE> <PRE> Color depth: 16 bits </PRE> <PRE> Kernel </PRE> <PRE> ===== </PRE> <PRE> Version: 2.0.29 </PRE> <PRE> Swap size: 64 MB </PRE> <PRE> gcc </PRE> <PRE> === </PRE> <PRE> Version: 2.7.2.1 </PRE> <PRE> Options: -O2 </PRE> <PRE> libc version: 5.4.23 </PRE> <PRE> Test notes </PRE> <PRE> ========== </PRE> <PRE> Very light load.
