hello,linux-mips
I have barely finished porting 2.4 kernel to Algorithmics P6032 board.Now I want
to make it more stable and run faster,is there any well-known test or benchmark tools used
by mips kernel group? There are too many benchmark around,I don't know which is better suit
for kernel test. I heard that linus use lmbench?
Thanks in advance.
Regards

lmbench is just a microbenchmark which tests certain very specific aspects
of the system call interface. Application performance can be very different.
I suggest to search google or a well sorted ftp server for benchmarks - there
are many.

In addition to lmbench, we have also used PCTS, a POSIX compliant test suite.
There are some issues in cross-compiling environment, but it should be
straightforward if you do a native build.
