The Phoronix Test Suite Gets A GUI
The Phoronix Test Suite GUI is compatible with all operating systems where pts-core (our benchmarking engine) is supported. This includes Linux, *BSD, OpenSolaris, and Mac OS X. The only additional dependency needed is the GTK2 module for PHP. The Phoronix Test Suite GUI is shown below running on Apple's Mac OS X 10.5.6.

Of course, there are a few GTK2 integration interface glitches on Mac OS X, but all of the same features are supported.
For those interested in testing out the latest development (or stable) release of the Phoronix Test Suite can download it from Phoronix-Test-Suite.com. To use the interface, run phoronix-test-suite gui. Beyond the graphical interface, there are also several other improvements to be found in Phoronix Test Suite 1.8.0 Alpha 2. The stabilized release of Phoronix Test Suite 1.8.0 "Selbu" is expected for an early Q2'09 release. We welcome your feedback and feature requests for this leading GPLv3 testing software in the Phoronix Forums.
