Going Beyond Just Measuring Frame Rates
,----[ Quote ]
| Yesterday marked the release of Phoronix
| Test Suite 2.2 and it was the best version
| yet with the addition of many new exciting
| and useful features. While this release
| was gratifying, there are much greater
| plans for the Phoronix Test Suite going
| into the next decade. It has already been
| shared that Windows support is coming, but
| there are other huge features coming too
| as soon as Q1'2010. Up to this point, most
| of the tests and the design of pts-core
| (the Phoronix Test Suite engine) have been
| focused on quantitative benchmarks with
| many of the tests spitting out a frame-
| rate, time, or some other measurement.

AMD Catalyst 9.11 For Linux Released
,----[ Quote ]
| AMD has today pushed out their Catalyst
| 9.11 Linux driver. This release contains
| support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux and
| initial support for OpenSuSE 11.2 along
| with a handful of minor bug-fixes. This
| release does also contain proper support
| for the Radeon HD 5750 and Radeon HD 5770
| graphics cards so that users do not
| encounter the "unsupported hardware"
| watermark any longer. Beyond that there
| isn't much to look at nor are there any
| XvBA improvements.

CentOS 5.4 vs. OpenSuSE 11.2 vs. Ubuntu 9.10 Benchmarks
,----[ Quote ]
| With the release of CentOS 5.4 last month to
| bring this community enterprise operating
| system on par with Red Hat Enterprise Linux
| 5.4, we decided it was a good time to see how
| the server / workstation performance between
| this new CentOS release compares to that of
| Ubuntu 9.10, which was released last week, and
| also how it performs up against the release
| candidate of OpenSuSE 11.2. In this article
| are these benchmarks.
