Best Linux Benchmark Scripts and Tools for 2020

Many Linux Admins searching for the best Best Linux Benchmark Scripts and Tools for 2020, They used it to check the server or vps performance when they bought it from the hosting companies.
The Linux benchmark scripts have to confirm the performance test for Memory, CPU, Hard disks and network for the server.In this Article i will explain the most and best scripts and tools for testing the performance for your server.

On most of the above Linux benchmark scripts you will see the details of the test for CPU, Memory, Storage and Network which is the main things that need most system admins try to test it.

For CPU you will see CPU Model,Number of cores, CPU frequency and CPU performance bench.

For Memory you will see total amount of memory, total amount of swap and memory specific benchmarks.

For Hard disks you will see type of disk space HDD or SSD, partition and names, total size of disk space that available and input/output speeds.

For Network you will see the Internet connection speed the download rates to many data center in the world.

Most of the common problem is varying between website nor application development way or input / output storage speed or internet speed limited....

You are able to use this tool to view system information and test the network, disk of your Linux server by using the command as follows

wget -qO- bench.sh | bash

or

curl -Lso- bench.sh | bash

The result will be as below:-

A script loosely based on the established freevps.us/bench.sh.
You can use it as below:-

[root@CentOS-76-64-minimal ~]# (curl -s wget.racing/nench.sh | bash; curl -s wget.racing/nench.sh | bash) 2>&1 | tee nench.log
