NEAL NELSON BENCHMARK LABORATORY Small Business Transaction Benchmark(TM), Standard Configuration

Note: In a "Standard Configuration" test all machines are configured with identical disk drives (two 146 GB Seagate Cheetah 15,000 RPM SCSI disks), the same RAM size (2 gigabytes), the same operating system software (SUSE Linux 10.1), configured with the same tunables and running the same application software, that was compiled with the same compilers and the same compile time options.
