Check if your machine is performing as well as it should and see what improvements (if any) result from changing something about your hardware, BIOS settings, or Operating System settings.
Make an informed decision on what hardware to buy by making sure it gives you a notable performance improvement.
Stress test your machine to ensure that the cooling can keep up with your CPU when it is hard at work (via command console).
Corona determines the color of each pixel by sending rays into the scene and analyzing the materials, lights and other components that affect it. Corona Benchmark runs for a fixed duration and then shows your machine's performance in rays per second (rays/s), where higher values mean better performance.
Corona Benchmark gives you a summary of your system, including which processor it has (CPU), what frequency it is operating at, how many physical and logical cores it offers, and how much RAM is installed.
Compare your machine’s performance to the scores of others. If you want, submit your own score to contribute to the pool of information.
Once the benchmark is complete, you can save your results to a local file on your machine. After you update your system, you can easily rerun the test to compare with the saved results.
Since all Benchmark tests last just 1 minute, it is normal for all machines to generate a noisy test result. With Corona Benchmark you can always view a clean version of your test scene.
