LuxMark

LuxMark is an OpenCL benchmark that measures GPU performance using the rendering capabilities of LuxCoreRender. It executes a series of physically based, unbiased rendering tasks through the LuxCore API, providing a quantitative assessment of how efficiently a system can process OpenCL workloads. The benchmark is built on the same core technology that powers LuxCoreRender, a rendering engine that simulates light according to physical equations.

The tool is intended for developers, hardware reviewers, and users who need to evaluate and compare the OpenCL performance of different GPUs or platforms, particularly on macOS where it is listed as a core component. By running a standardized set of rendering operations, LuxMark produces reproducible results that can be used to gauge the effectiveness of driver updates, hardware upgrades, or system configurations.

LuxMark is distributed under the GPL license and relies on the LuxCore API, which is available under the Apache Public License v2.0. Windows users must install the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2017 and the Intel C++ redistributable to run the benchmark.
