Xbench was developed in response to the lack of convenient benchmarking tools on Mac OS X according to the developer, Spiny Software. It provides a range of useful tests, and is constantly being improved to offer accurate results that can be compared between different Macintoshes. Xbench is useful not only for comparing the relative speeds of two different Macintoshes, but also for optimizing performance on a single machine. Xbench is accompanied by a website that allows graphical side-by-side comparison of any out of thousands of submitted benchmarks. It’s freeware. More info and download linkhere.
