In computing, a benchmark is the act of running a computer program, a set of programs, or other operations, to assess the relative performance of an object, usually by running a number of standardized tests and trials of the object. The term ‘benchmark’ is also largely used for purposes of benchmarking program designed complex itself. Benchmarking usually associated with assessing performance characteristics of computer hardware, for example, the floating point operation performance of the CPU, but there are situations when this technique is also applicable to software. Benchmark software, for example, run against compilers or database management system. Benchmark provides a method of comparing the performance of various subsystems in chip architectures / different systems .
Benchmark performed on a computer in the internet cafe using Novabench, Super PI, and CPU-Z 1.73.
Novabench is a freeware computer benchmarking utility for Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X. The program is to test the performance of the computer components and provide exclusive score, with higher scores indicate better performance. Available online repository in which submitted scores can be compared. This tool has been noted for its speed and simplicity.
From the results of bench performed on a computer in the internet cafe using Novabench, this computer obtains a total score of 200. 1051 MB of system RAM with a score of 81, and a speed of 2266 MB / s. CPU tests with a score of 110, where floating point operations / second 23,401,144, Integer operations / second 48,674,745, and MD5 hashes generated / second 560000. Graphic tests only acquire a score of 2 with 3D frames per second 10. And Hardware tests with a score of 7 in which Primary partition 75 GB capacity, and Drive write speed 19 MB / s.
Super PI is a computer program that calculates pi to a specified number of digits after the decimal point-until a maximum of 32 million. Using the Gauss-Legendre algorithm and a Windows port of the program used by Yasumasa Canada in 1995 to calculate pi to the number 232. Super PI is popular in the overclocking community, either as a benchmark to test the performance of the system and as a stress test to check that they are still functioning correctly. preset benchmarks which are commonly run is preset 1M and 32M, the faster your processor to run SuperPi, the faster the time of calculation.
From the bench results using Super PI, if compared with the other computer that has a higher specification in the calculation 32M, can be seen that the computer is lagging very far, with a time of 42 minutes 57 seconds. Thus, the computer is very slow.
CPU-Z is a freeware system profiling and monitoring application for Microsoft Windows and Android that detects the central processing unit, RAM, chipset motherboard , and features of other hardware of modern personal computers, and Android smart phones, and presents the information in a single window (in versions PC), or by opening the application (in this version of the smart phone).
From the bench results of CPU performed using CPU-Z on a computer in the internet cafe, if compared with the Intel (R) Core (TM) i7-3630QM CPU @ 2.40GHz, Processor at this internet cafe computer (Intel Celeron 430) very less, with a score of 263 642 appeals on a single thread, and 1 to 2371 in the multi-thread.
Of all the results of bench done on a computer in the internet cafe, it can be concluded that this computer has low specifications , and the computer is not strong enough to do the heavy work.
