About yet another bench script

Yet Another Bench Script is a bash script that estimates Linux server performance using fio for disk, iperf3 for network, and Geekbench for CPU/memory. It runs via curl or wget piped to bash, is designed to work without installed dependencies or elevated privileges, and supports flags to skip tests, select Geekbench versions, and output or submit results as JSON. Default network tests use high bandwidth, ARM support is described as experimental, and Windows use requires WSL 2.

  • Tests network performance with iperf3
  • Tests CPU/memory with Geekbench 4/5/6/7
  • Flags to skip disk, network, or system tests
  • Outputs results as JSON to screen or file
