Seat Graffiti
Seat Graffiti is a small app which runs some basic benchmarks on Windows and on POSIX-compatible systems. It was written to test some evaluation machines against each other, and tests processor speed, disk I/O speed and how speedily things are shuffled around in the RAM.
A disclaimer: I am not a benchmarking expert. Seat Graffiti is designed to test system performance at the lowest level possible, and is still misisng many features that commercial software has. However, it is FOSS released into the public domain. However, as a courtesy, if you modify it, I ask you to (voluntarily) link back to this web page and credit me as the original author.
There's no official support - if you would like support, please post a message to the Backfeed Forums, and I'll try and respond to you. Seat Graffiti comes with absolutely no warranty.
The current release of Seat Graffiti is 1-2. Here's the source file for POSIX-compatible systems. I am not providing any binaries, as yet, so you'll have to compile it yourself. Et voila le manuel.
Other caveats include the fact that if you want to run it on Windows, you must use this source file, as it replaces all instances of fpurge(stdin) with fflush(stdin). The manual is out of date in this respect, and will be revised as such in future releases.
Bugs? Feature requests? E-mail me or drop a message on the Backfeed Forums. My e-mail address can be found somewhere on Crashed Pips - I appreciate this is somewhat messy, I'll sort it out very soon.
