Public benchmarks

Compare results with matching versions, scenes, settings and statistics. A run count of 0 identifies an aggregate or reported value, not a newly measured run.

Too few submissions · No representative score

Run count: 2

Too few submissions · Individual results onlyn = 2

Counts represent submissions; the number of independent systems is unknown. Stock or overclocked status, RAM and power settings are also unknown.

Measurement scope and interpretation

Sample thresholds are an initial display policy, not a guarantee of statistical confidence. P95 is not a theoretical limit. OS submission shares do not represent user market share.

Blender complete benchmark

Too few submissions · No representative score

Run count: 2

Too few submissions · Individual results onlyn = 2

4.5.0 · monster + junkshop + classroom · CPU · Linux · Linux Mint · 22.2 · 1P · 4 cores · 8 threads

Counts represent submissions; the number of independent systems is unknown. Stock or overclocked status, RAM and power settings are also unknown.

Measurement scope and interpretation

Sample thresholds are an initial display policy, not a guarantee of statistical confidence. P95 is not a theoretical limit. OS submission shares do not represent user market share.
