- how to install and run geekbench on Debian?
- pros: [+] cross os [+] easy online comparison of systems
- cons: [-] not open source 🙁 (privacy!) [-] v5 results can not be compared to v6 🙁
- PRIVACY WARNING! GEEKBENCH AUTOMATICALLY UPLOADS THE USER’S SYSTEM DETAILS TO IT’S SERVER!

# run it (non-root) ./Geekbench-6.4.0-Linux/geekbench6 file ./Geekbench-6.4.0-Linux/geekbench6: ELF 64-bit LSB pie executable, x86-64, version 1 (GNU/Linux), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 3.2.0, not stripped
- v5 lenovo t440 (10 year old!) vs macbook pro m1
- v6 old esprimo siemens PC i5
- ok obviously the m1 won
- interestingly single core it was a close race between MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2021) vs LENOVO T14 (21AJS9AB18)
- multi core the m1 won again
- yes it’s possible to run Asahi on M1
- a Fedora based GNU Linux https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asahi_Linux
- [+] stable
- [+] performance
- [-] 8GB of RAM won’t be enough if user want to run LLM AI offline
- [-] no external monitor support? (yet)
- btw the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO based thinkpad t14s due to it’s way slower clock speed is slower than the i5 variant
- v6 LENOVO T14 (21AJS9AB18) vs gaming notebook ASUS TUF A15 15,6″ FHD 144Hz Ryzen 9 8945H 16GB 512GB RTX 4060
- gaming notebook won by +14% (single core) +67% (multi core)
- v6 in comparison to the MacBook M1 Pro (16-inch, 2021) the AMD Ryzen 9 8945HS is same speed single core but slower multi core
- which clearly proofs that RISC based CPUs have best performance per watt ratio
- but most vendors except Apple did not manage (yet) to create a performant RISC or RISC-V notebook
- the currently fastest (?) RISC-V SoC seems to be A LOT slower than that LENOVO t14 i5
- so three is CLEARLY room for improvement and higher (RISC(V)) clock speeds
- which clearly proofs that RISC based CPUs have best performance per watt ratio
