This is a small script for Arch-compatible distros that runs simple benchmarks and stress tests.

• perf sched & mem
• stress-ng cpu & mem
• xz compression
• ffmpeg compilation
• y-cruncher pi calculation
• argon2 hashing
• blender rendering
• primesieve
• kernel defconfig
• namd
• x265 encoding

How It Works

• cachyos-benchmarker: The core script. It prepares the environment, downloads necessary assets, and runs a suite of 12 synthetic and real-world benchmarks (such as stress-ng, Blender CPU render, FFmpeg/Kernel compilation, and x265 encoding). Results, along with detailed system and sched-ext information, are logged to a .log file.
• benchmark_scraper.py: A visualization and data extraction tool. It parses the generated .log files to aggregate performance metrics, compare different kernel or scheduler configurations, and generate visual bar charts alongside an HTML report. It also automatically exports the aggregated raw data to time-stamped .csv and .json files for further analysis.
• kernel-autofdo.sh: A helper script for hardware profiling. It automatically configures kernel branch sampling and runs the benchmarker alongside additional workloads (like sysbench and base-kernel compilation) to generate a footprint for AutoFDO.

ToDo

• Geekbench: Request in benchmark, if its wanted to run geekbench and then print the URL into Logfile
• schbench: Add schbench and parse the result into logfile for scheduler latency benchmarking
