Anyone know if there's anything more current than GitHub - STH-Dev/linux-bench: STH Linux benchmarking script Looks like it was updated in 2017, but only to change the copywrite.
I see reviews (like the new nuc 12 pro) that includes benchmarks for a Linux-4.4.2 compile, 7-zip compression, OpenSSL Sign and Verify, MariaDB, and C-ray.
My motivation is I'd like to compare hardware that hasn't been reviewed to hardware reviewed. Maybe even drumming up interest in the forums for future STH reviews. In particular I just have a Nanopi R6s with the CNC machined/passively cooled case. It's in the general category as the various intel based fanless firewalls. It's got 8 cores, 8GB ram, two 2.5G ethernet ports, and can do 3GB/sec to NVMe, if you add one. Of course the question is, how fast is the RK3588 chip compared to the Celeron J4125/N5095/N5105 and Pentium N6005? I'm betting pretty competitive, on a compile benchmark it was *seven* times faster than a RPI4 with 8GB ram.
I can happily get 7-zip, kernel compiles, and the like going, but it's not a good reference point unless the same exact flags/settings are used. Even things as simple as file compression can be impacted by file size, if the filecache is warm, if you writing the output, compression radio/dictionary size, etc. Compiling kernels can change change radically with what functionality is enabled, how many threads are used, etc.
Anyone know how to replicate the benchmarks used in a recent review, like: https://www.servethehome.com/intel-nuc-12-pro-wall-street-canyon-review-fanned-and-fanless
If not, maybe we can just pick some standard options so we can compare amongst ourselves. Maybe something like:

If not, maybe we can just pick some standard options so we can compare amongst ourselves. Maybe something like:
- openssl speed -bytes 16384 sha256 sha512 aes-256-cbc rsa2048
- 7z b
- c-ray 2.0: make; time ./c-ray-fast ./sphfract.scn -s 3840x2160 -r 4 -o output.pnm -p
- Open source
- Easy to configure (not much more than wget/git clone, tar xvf <file>, and make
- Runs in less than 5 minutes on a 2015 ish quad core desktop
- Produces results that can be summarized in less 5 numbers.
- Can run in 8GB ram or less
