4 Benchmarking

Benchmarking is the practice of comparing performance metrics to a consistent standard or baseline. In regards to benchmarking a CPU or GPU, a consistent task or workload is given to the processor and different metrics are measured. These metrics are then compared to a standard baseline and a score given based on how well the processor performed. Some common metrics that are measured for processors include clock rate, latency, execution time, and throughput. Frames per second (FPS) is also a common metric specific to benchmarking a GPU.
