Phoronix Test Suite 4.6-Sokndal Milestone 2 Released
The Phoronix Test Suite 4.6 release isn't due out until late in the third quarter, but already in this development cycle has been the new min / max support and various other changes. The 4.6 Milestone 2 release isn't as major as the first milestone release and there's still much more that's baking for future 4.6 development releases. However, there's still a modest collection of minor improvements worth pushing out this second release.
Phoronix Test Suite 4.6 Milestone 2 features some improvements for Mandriva-based distributions, a couple more Apple OS X support improvements, and a number of Phodevi (Phoronix Device Interface) library enhancements.
This latest release of our open-source automated benchmarking software is available for free download at Phoronix-Test-Suite.com.
