BRL-CAD is a powerful cross-platform constructive solid geometry solid modeling system that includes an interactive geometry editor, ray-tracing for rendering & geometric analyses, network distributed framebuffer support, image & signal-processing tools.

Having been a Mac OSX user now for some years I appreciate the simplicity of CoconutBattery (http://www.coconut-flavour.com/), which shows you all relevant information of the battery of your laptop (iBook, PowerBook, MacBook, ...) and has one outstanding feature: you can save the current health state of the laptop's battery and thus monitor the long term development (degradation) of the battery. Since I have to work in Windows at work :-( I was looking for a similar tool in the MS world....

Assorted projects. General-purpose libraries for Python, C++, Scala, bash, and others. Meta-programming tools. System utilities. UI components. Web APIs. Configuration files. Benchmarks. Programming competition entries. And much more.

OpenGLChecker is a fast and smooth program that retrieves relevant information about your OpenGL implementation. It can also test your computer's performance with fully scripted benchmarks. This allows you to write your own benchmark scripts for testing your OpenGL performance.

I/O performance Analysis Tool

ArchC is an open-source architecture description language based on SystemC. Its goal is to provide designers with a tool to evaluate new ideas in processor and ISA design, memory hierarchy, etc. and other aspects of computer architecture research.

BEYE (Binary EYE) is a free, portable, advanced file viewer with built-in editor for binary, hexadecimal and disassembler modes. It contains a highlight AVR/Java/i86-AMD64/ARM-XScale/PPC-64 and other disassembler, full preview of MZ,NE,PE,ELF and other.

A collection of performance analysis software that can assist with a variety of techniques useful for application software optimization and benchmarking. The current release provides support for analysis with hardware performance counters on Linux.

System Stability Tester is a multi platform open source clone of SuperPI and comes with a GUI and a CLI. It can be used for CPU and RAM burning, stressing and benchmarking.

HardInfo displays information about your hardware and operating system.

Shut the Box is a simple diversion written in C and GTK+. The object is simple: Roll the dice and click the tiles that sum up to that dice roll until there are no more tiles to click.

OPM is a portable benchmark tool with a uniform performance unit across various platforms.

A generic, vendor-independent open-source application to determine the performance of a pub-sub infrastructure.

The Flexible Filesystem Benchmark (FFSB) is a cross-platform filesystem performance measurement tool. It uses customizable profiles to measure of different workloads, and it supports multiple groups of threads across multiple filesystems.

This is an opensource project for the calculation of the mathematical constant Pi. If you are a mathematician or programer please contribute ideas or code for this project. Non professionals are also welcome to contribute.

A 3D benchmark comparing the different features / extensions of OpenGL. Made for the Linux operating system, but is portable to any other OS that SDL supports.

UDP-relay is an application that measures the application level delay in a specific (and specified) path through a network.

lmbench is a suite of simple, portable, ANSI/C microbenchmarks for UNIX/POSIX. In general, it measures two key features: latency and bandwidth. lmbench is intended to give system developers insight into basic costs of key operations.

GliBench SMP is an SMP enabled benchmark for testing you computers performance. It is a rewrite of my tool CliBench which is quite known in the Windows world. It is based on GTK/Gnome which should make it simple to port to other OS.

The program thrulay is used to measure the capacity, delay, and other performance metrics of a network by sending a bulk TCP or UDP stream over it.

benchIO is a multi-platform multi-function benchmark for I/O subsystems. It's written in ANSI C compatible with the POSIX standard

Bertha is an I/O benchmark tool for high-end storage subsystems. Based on Tim Bray's Bonnie benchmark tool with three enhancements: 1)it generates far more I/O, 2)it offers a facility to replay I/O transactions”, and 3)extensive metrics reporting.

GL O.B.S. is based around a PyGTK interface that launches OpenGL programs feeding them with a common CLI options set which will affect their behaviour, then receives back their statistical output. Benchmarks are easy to create and add.

A program to draw (and save the results to files) a diagramm that shows the execution time of a programm, which does some floating point calculations, in dependency of the number of used threads. It saves the result as a gnuplot file and a CSV file.

A simple command to convert calendar dates to julian dates. Quite useful in timing situations where you need elapsed time between dates. Also useful for astronomy applications.
