We have invested a lot of resources into enriching the Linux
hardware experience particularly by improving Linux performance
benchmarks and taking the necessary steps to make Linux-based
benchmarking an attractive offer for hardware and software vendors. We
have also strived to ensure that open-source developers understand the
importance of automated testing and that they have the proper tools to
fully automate tests relevant to them when looking for performance
regressions and other conditions that otherwise would not easily be
caught in an efficient and effective manner. At the same time, we have
sought to standardize the benchmarking process of Linux desktops to make
it easier for end-users and companies when looking to gauge how well
something works on Linux. The Phoronix Test Suite has made immense
progress over the past year, but today it is now time to expose our
latest endeavor, Sandtorg.
