The BYTE benchmark suite tests several aspects of system performance.
An article which describes the concepts and helps understand the results
can be found in the doc directory (/usr/local/lib/bytebench/doc if you use
a PREFIX of /usr/local).
This benchmark is quite prominent among Linux users, and there is a patched
version available from some web suite from where results are made available,
too.
Since they offer some results of non-Linux systems for comparison, they might
be interested in FreeBSD reports, too ;-)
Quoting from "README.submittal" of the Linux version of this benchmark suite:
% Please e-mail test results along with platform info to:
%
% results@silkroad.com
%
% Included CPU info, speed, RAM, and host adapter and bus
% info as well as any special compilation flags.
%
% See TEMPLATE Below....
%
% results will be included in the URL:
