Testing the Speed of my system

#1 Post by dcihon »

What do you think of using these commands to test the performance of a system:

Code: Select all

systemd-analyze
systemd-analyze critical-chain
systemd-analyze blame
Mine looks like this:

Code: Select all

cihonm@cihonm:/media/cdrom0$ systemd-analyze
Startup finished in 5.563s (kernel) + 32.257s (userspace) = 37.820s
graphical.target reached after 32.243s in userspace

Code: Select all

cihonm@cihonm:/media/cdrom0$ systemd-analyze critical-chain
The time after the unit is active or started is printed after the "@" character.
The time the unit takes to start is printed after the "+" character.

That's not a good test of system performance or speed, that's only bootup time?

Not even that, a workable desktop can be reached before the time quoted by those commands.

Try installing hardinfo. It has its own toolbox of benchmarks, and you'll get a nice report on your system.

Code: Select all

apt install hardinfo

I think that those systemd-analyze commands are good for reviewing possible problems in your startup, but the speed of your system will also reflect in the results.

I'm fairly happy with mine:

Code: Select all

hardinfo is also good for looking at system performance, but makes comparisons against a machine so old as to be irrelevant.

The speed of any computer I use is directly related to how fast I can type, thus something less than 30wpm. :wink:

Seriously, I think that when we try to test the speed of a system we fool ourselves. We used to use glxgears until we learned that all it is useful for is to watch the gears go around. Etc. Real bench testing requires test gear and a fair amount of knowledge. Even if we can get it done properly all we get is bragging rights. It still doesn't improve ones typing.

Sure. It's fun though. Big long extensive benchmarks I don't ever take the time. Many are so narrow in scope they're almost period or generation specific. On the other hand little quickies, and especially video specific test can give some guidance and reveal things otherwise missed. Your 30 words per minute was eclipsed somewhere back in the DX2 days, or before, and not so helpful. Setting up a regular machine to do regular things which seems to operate in regular ways, yes, I probably wouldn't bother. Over the last decade, really since dynamic clocking came about I've come to use a few old test to help me adjust that clock profile. Setting up non-regular machines in recent years I've found these little benchmarks critical, since some cpu generations have acted different. I could have settled for a variable result I didn't understand, or find the 3-6X performance increases I've found. One test led me to discover and verify a passed gpu yielding acceleration help to QXL virtual gpu, so now for a single non-regular purpose I can have 2 screens passed from a VM and its third 'window' on the host screen also working. I rarely use that, but better than assuming it didn't work... Overall, benchmarks are usefull when they are repeatable and used to guage the software more so than the hardware.

Mine can run 0.A.D smoothly. On top of GNOME. Do I get a cookie?

Maybe I should try for under 10!

Code: Select all

# systemd-analyze
Startup finished in 11.140s (kernel) + 1.189s (userspace) = 12.329s
My -blame is to long with the top 8 >194ms up to 564ms.
Note it takes over a minute to get post, and that happens just once a month. In my info above this is the E5.

I'm running an HP Prodesk 600, with an i7-7700, SSD, and 8g ram. *hugs his compy* :P

Note that I am running far less services than you, so that alone could be a big factor. Also, I running i3 window manager, so not much background services to be loaded (as opposed to gnome/kde...).

It seems that your apt services are slowing you down. And your ufw (firewall) service, I'm wondering if you could somehow load that in the background and not have systemd wait on it? Network connections used to slow my boot speed down as well until I told sysd to not wait on them.

Code: Select all

5ms alsa-restore.service
This is impressive to me; I remember my alsa-restore taking several seconds to load, so I ditched it. I might reconsider adding it back now that I see this. :)

I also running wm-xmonad. No DM, just startx. The system has a total of 1026 packages. But my system is on hdd, not on sdd. Also, my system has twice less RAM than yours. Cpu is Intel Core i7 CPU 920 @ 2.793GHz

Yes I'm thinking about this factor. No, I will not squander much of it. The system is not on the ssd. No matter... After four seconds, the total time will be six seconds.
