Phoronix test suite for the video anyhow.

Never bothered much with cpu tests - Compile a kernel with
time make -j10 :-D

That was enough for me - I am not going to swap cpus if I don't think they are fast enough.

A command...

Do you want to stress or to measure stress? You can measure with the command "top"

Well, I want to check the video card and compare video drivers in Linux.
So, I need some program or command to check perfomance.

I tried Phoronix in Debian squeeze and when I installed it, it doesnot run fine.
So, I cannot use it.

If you want the results, and can't take 'no' for an answer, make it work.

If you don't need the result, end of thread :-P.
