Sysbench
Appearance
Sysbench is an open-source scriptable multi-threaded benchmarking tool. It is a C binary and uses LuaJIT scripts to execute benchmarks. It is most frequently used for database benchmarks, but can also be used to create arbitrarily complex workloads that do not involve a database server. However, it is a multi-purpose benchmark that features tests for CPU, memory, I/O, and database performance testing.[1] It is a basic command line utility that offers a direct and uncomplicated way to test your system. It now comes packaged in most major Linux distribution repositories such as Debian, Ubuntu, CentOS and Arch Linux.
History
Sysbench was originally created by Peter Zaitsev in 2004.[2] Soon after, Alexy Kopytov took over its development.[3]
