[comp.windows.x] Benchmarking X Window System Systems

mike@tslvax.UUCP (Michael J. Tobias) (10/25/89)

Is there a standard benchmark people are using for measuring X
performance on various workstations?
Is anybody keeping a list of results?

I've run xbench on our X accelerator boards and gotten some interesting results.

I use x11perf, available on expo:/contrib/x11perf.tar.Z.  But then, I
wrote most of the tests in it.

A new version should be available soon, with tests for a lot more X
graphics requests than the current version.
