Geekbench always fail

tokoyuki

I saw a lot of people doing benchmark on their beloved vps, but on my vps, it's acting weird.
One of them is already use in live production so I don't want to slow it down with benchmark.

Then I have 2 of them more idling with different provider, disk performance, speed test shows just fine, but geekbench 4 and gb 5 don't wanna run.

It just show like this

root@vps:~# curl -LsO bench.monster/speedtest.sh; bash speedtest.sh -gb5

Performing Geekbench v5 CPU Benchmark test. Please wait...

do you have swap? if no then add it and check again, if still doesn't work then use yabs

Its says curl: no URL specified! the script is probably not extracting the download url for Geekbench correctly.

Get it directly from https://www.geekbench.com/download/linux/ and run it
Although if you have too low RAM, the benchmark would crash mid-way.

Hi, it looks like the swap prob, after adding swap, finally the benchmark running. Thanks.
