ThinkPad X220: Benchmarking

UNDER CONSTRUCTION: The document is currently being modified!

 Back to Category:ThinkPad

For basic testing I installed the following packages.

# yaourt -S mesa-demos hdparm

dd (cpu)

 

# dd if=/dev/zero bs=1G count=10 | md5sum

10+0 records in 10+0 records out 10737418240 bytes (11 GB, 10 GiB) copied, 20.3283 s, 528 MB/s 2dd26c4d4799ebd29fa31e48d49e8e53 -

CPU Temperature peaked around 64C during the test.

# dd if=/dev/zero bs=1G count=160 | md5sum

160+0 records in 160+0 records out 171798691840 bytes (172 GB, 160 GiB) copied, 324.407 s, 530 MB/s 8f75e24931ccd52edfc887601023073b -

CPU Temperature was a constant ~70C with peaks of 71-72C hitting as high as 74C near the end.

dd (ssd write)

 

# dd if=/dev/zero of=$HOME/tempfile bs=1M count=1024 conv=fdatasync,notrunc status=progress

1024+0 records in 1024+0 records out 1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB, 1.0 GiB) copied, 9.93576 s, 108 MB/s

glxgears (vsync)

 

# glxgears

Running synchronized to the vertical refresh. The framerate should be approximately the same as the monitor refresh rate. 304 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.715 FPS 301 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.049 FPS 301 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.050 FPS 301 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.050 FPS 301 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.048 FPS 301 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.049 FPS 301 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.050 FPS 301 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.048 FPS 301 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.050 FPS 301 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.048 FPS 301 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.045 FPS 301 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.055 FPS 301 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.049 FPS 301 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.049 FPS

hdparm (ssd read)

 

# sudo hdparm -Tt /dev/sda

/dev/sda: Timing cached reads: 12822 MB in 2.00 seconds = 6414.67 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 790 MB in 3.00 seconds = 263.13 MB/sec

systemd-analyze (boot speed)

 

# systemd-analyze plot > ~/boot.svg
