...You can find a number of battery monitoring programs for MS Windows, which give you a plethora of (useless) information - or do not work at all. Finally I decided to make one of my own (the world waited for that so badly!). And here it is.
Since I did not want to restrict it to Windows only I made it a GTK application, which is cross platform portable. I created the low level data gathering functions for both Windows and Linux.
Utility to test the real block size of storage media. Mostly flash (SSD) drives use larger block sizes than 512 bytes and emulate the sector size which may cause severe performance degradation. This tool helps determine real block size. See wiki.
This tiny project is a plugin for collectd (http://collectd.org/), which collects statistics from php5-pinba (http://pinba.org/). Now this project is collectd-based replacement for MySQL-based pinba-engine.
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.
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.
Xdd is a command-line based tool for measuring and characterizing disk subsystem I/O on single systems and clusters of systems. It is designed to provide consistent and reproducible performance measurements of disk I/O traffic. This repo has 6.2a which is really old an obsolete.
The name XDD is trademarked and belongs to
I/O Performance, Inc. (http://www.ioperformance.com/)
See the github account of the fine folks at ORNL for a more recent version (https://github.com/ORNL/xdd). It may still not be the most recent version because that is how Tom rolls ;-)
Project LX is the codename for HWLogic.coms upcoming open source system benchmark. Project LX will be a highly compatible benchmark suite which will allow users to benchmark nearly every aspect of their system.
Drow is an ELF linux analyzer coded in C.It is aimed to the low-level programmer. It is a console application which displays ELF file information in an human readable format, providing different options for different parts/aims of the file data.
Pench is a tiny benchmark program. In only ten seconds this program calculates a cpu index, which allows you to compare different cpu's with each other.
The PagingMon (Paging Monitor) project aims to provide a *real time* visualization of page-in and page-out activities in a virtual memory system. The name comes from PokeMon, which is a popular Japanese cartoon.
Goal: To develop an open source test suite and certification program which will reliably ensure the proper functionality of hardware running Open Source operating systems (currently Linux and FreeBSD). See http://www.open-hardware.org for details.
lsstack is a Linux implementation of the "pstack" utility from Solaris
lsstack is a command line utility which (efficiently and quickly) prints the call stacks for all threads in a specified process,
with symbolic names for functions, where symbols ar
The PDEPP Webserver "pdeppd" is a small HTTP/1.0 server which currently
implements most of the HTTP/1.0 standard except the POST method and
authentication.
xrate is a simple program written in C which calculates the realtime transfer rates of a running pipe. This might be useful for checking if your system is fast enough to record a CD on-the-fly.
