Benchmark Orange Pi PC 2 vs. RPI 3

Benchmark Orange Pi PC 2 @ Debian Jessie 64Bit vs RPI 3 Raspian Jessie 32 Bit

### To make the Benchmark yourself1. Install sysbench
Click here to read about sysbench: https://www.howtoforge.com/how-t ... mysql-with-sysbench

sudo apt-get install sysbench

2. Benchmark
Click here for the benchmark method on a RPI2 : http://www.davidhunt.ie/raspberry-pi-2-benchmarked/

CPU Threat 1:
sysbench --test=cpu --cpu-max-prime=20000 run
CPU Multi:
sysbench --test=cpu --num-threads=4 --cpu-max-prime=10000 run
Memory:
sysbench --test=memory --memory-block-size=1M --memory-total-size=10G --num-threads=4 run
IO Write:
sysbench --test=fileio --file-test-mode=rndwr --file-total-size=16MB --num-threads=4 prepare
sysbench --test=fileio --file-test-mode=rndwr --file-total-size=16MB --max-requests=1000 --num-threads=4 run

IO Read:
sysbench --test=fileio --file-test-mode=rndrd --file-total-size=16MB --max-requests=10000 --num-threads=4 run
Cleanup:
sysbench --test=fileio --file-total-size=16MB cleanup

Hey Folks,

did a benchmark - enjoy the pictures Upper half = Raspberry - lower Half (of the picture) = orangepi

Unfortunately sysbench is simply crap to measure CPU performance. This thingie does only prime number calculations and results vary dependent on compiler settings: When you use Ubuntu Xenial instead of Debian Jessie sysbench numbers are 30 percent higher (why? Most probably since Xenial uses GCC 5.4 and Jessie 4.9). If you allow the compiler to generate code for ARMv8 then execution times of this useless 'benchmark' are 15 times lower/faster (always remember: sysbench on RPi is built with ARMv6 settings even on RPi 3!). Even sysbench version number influences massively the results. With 0.5 scores are way lower than with 0.4.12 as used everywhere these days.
In case anyone is really interested in performance of various SBC read through:

• this whole thread
• 'Performance' paragraphs here
• What's wrong with passive benchmarking like this sysbench stuff in general
  

RPi 3 has faster CPU cores compared to A64 or H5 but that doesn't really matter since especially the latter has way more network and IO bandwidth available.

And not to forget the 1Gbit Port and the two independant USB 2.0 Host (1x/2x) .

Marvelous.I will be able' to use the pc2 to make the benchmark and the raspberry to see the tv, considering that on the product that has a stupendous benchmark, it doesn't turn us of it kodi of it tvheadend........But it has a beautiful benchmark

The OrangePi and the Raspberry were never meant to be a Kodi Platform. There are better device or TV Boxes out there. But in case you want to run an experimental Firewall/Server/NAS on it you got more power.

4K , USB (all independent channels , no hubs )  ,Ethernet(physical , rasperry is connected on USB hub) , Mali graphics , More UART,  In every aspect Orange Pi has better hardware than Raspberry , but software and support sucks ..

Hi,

NAS, really? The OPI PC2 is not able to exeed ~30MB/s. Even with cheap mother boards you can build a cheap and low power real NAS...

This valuable appear to be most certainly good. Those very tiny facts are designed implementing a wide variety for experience know-how. That i love the reasoning behind a lot.        Sugar Defender

Aw, this has been an exceptionally good post. In concept I would like to place in writing similar to this moreover – spending time and actual effort to have a really good article… but what can I say… I procrastinate alot and by no means seem to get something completed.        jun88.bike

My brother recommended I might like this web site. He was entirely right. This post truly made my day. You cann’t imagine simply how much time I had spent for this info! Thanks!        jun88.bike
