Geekbench isn't a micro benchmark, it's a comprehensive test of the system using a variety of programs and workloads and aggregates the results. It's not a single program that one can play games with compiler optimizations.
- DCKing 7y agoI should have clarified that Geekbench can be more accurately described as a set of microbenchmarks. It does test a lot of different kinds of performance, but it does not test sustained performance.
- qppo 7y agoI don't like arguing semantics but I don't really think any of what Geekbench does is a "micro" benchmark. At least for me that typically refers to running a small snippet of code, like calculating a dot product or something. Geekbench tests whole program performance. It's not aida64 but it is a pretty decent metric, and consistent.
