...making Linux just a little more fun!

Hello everyone!
Im looking for a multi-process CPU benchmark to be run on linux (CLI is even better), as I need to test how well a kerrighed cluster is running. Anyone know of any of those programs?
Thanks Deividson

what kinda of benchmark? are you just trying to monitor the performance of it? if yes, look at sar

You could try compiling the linux kernel and see how well it spreads the load around? You could invoke make with -j equal to the number of CPUs (or cores) you have.

Since you said you shall run the program on top of Kerrighed cluster, I'd say you better run something like: PVM PovRay, distributed john the ripper etc.
MPICH dan PVM each has test program that you can use to test the capability of your cluster. Something heavy like parallel FFT calculation would also sufficient too.
Oh and btw, IIRC, avoid using program that relies on System V shared memory, since it would prevent Kerrighed to load balance the tasks.
