CentOS 5.2 Benchmark/test tool?

Hi guys,

Does anyone know a good, simple tool that can test/benchmark a server running CentOS 5.2 64bit.

It needs to support testing dual processors (2 x quadcore) and lots of ram (40Gb+).

Thanks

The only testing I can really think of is the phronix test suite:

Not sure how reliable and accurate this is but I had some fun using to and seeing where my pc rated compared to other machines. This test suite does seem to be an amalgamation of several other tests you can use individually.

May be worth looking at?

Are you looking for a stability test or something to give you a overall score to compare against a different system?

For comparison etc look at Unixbench

Stability. It's to test everything is working before it get's delivered to the client.
