This Technical Note shows how to run Phoronix Test Suite on the SBCSBP gateway. For the sake of simplicity, the Debian Stretch distribution was used.
This test suite is convenient to estimate the performance of a target platform or to compare different platforms. The suite is extremely modular and tons of tests are available.
The test suite is released as a architecture-independent package. As such, the installation is straightforward once the required PHP packages are installed onto the target.
The installation package is available here.
For the sake of simplicity, the smallpt suite was used to compare the results depending on the selected governor.

NOTICE: The following PHP extensions are OPTIONAL but recommended:
GD The GD library is recommended for improved graph rendering.
Bzip2 The bzcompress/bzip2 support can be used for greater file compression.
SQLite3 SQLite3 is required when running a Phoromatic server.
CURL CURL is recommended for an enhanced download experience.
