+
+Overview 
+========
+Passmark's PerformanceTest for Linux/Mac is a software tool that allows everybody to quickly assess the performance of their computer and compare it to a number of standard 'baseline' computer systems.
+
+Installation
+============
+Unzip the executable from the downloaded zip file using "unzip pt_linux_<arch>.zip"
+
+How to launch application
+==========================
+To run application via the command line, from your terminal:
+	1. Change the current working directory to where you have unzipped PerformanceTest
+	2. Launch PerformanceTest using the command ./pt_linux_<arch> (or ./pt_mac on MacOS)
+
+System Requirements
+======================
+Linux:
+
+x86 Version: Supports 64-bit x86 CPU's
+ARM 32-bit: Supports ARMv7 and ARMv8 CPU's in AArch32 mode
+ARM 64-bit: Supports ARMv8 CPU's in AArch64 mode
+
+The following distros have been tested;
+Ubuntu 16.04, 18.04, 20.04
+CentOS 8
+Raspberry Pi OS
+Fedora 32
+
+Linux distributions that meet the following reqirments should also work;
+Linux Kernel 4.1 or higher
+glibc 2.20 or higher
+libstdc++ 6.0.20

+Version History
+===============
+
+11.0 Build 1004 - 12th November 2025
+- (Linux) Fixed issue where CPU model can be changed by modifying the /proc/cpuinfo file.
+  CPU model is obtained via cpuid if supported.
+
+11.0 Build 1003 - 25th March 2024
+- Baseline Upload workaround from libcurl versions 8.4.0 to 8.6.0 (ssl connect error)
+- Command Line Performance Test now requires macOS 11.0 or later
+
+11.0 Build 1002 - 19th October 2023
+- Added autorun command line argument "-bg" for running in the background
+
+11.0 Build 1001 - 31st August 2023
+- Increased max thread count from 256 to 1024
+- (Mac) - Included NEON FMA subtest for Apple M1/M2 machines
+
+11.0 Build 1000 - 1st May 2023
+- Updated version number to 11 to match current Windows release
+- Added extra timeout lengths based on test thread count to CPU test (30 seconds for > 200, 60 seconds for > 500)
+
+10.2 Build 1003 - 27th June 2022
+- Remove (TM) and (R) from CPU name
+
+10.2 Build 1002 - 17th May 2022
+- Fixed baseline uploading that was broken due to passmark.com moving to a new webserver
+
+10.2 Build 1001 - 2nd March 2022
+- Add support for locales other than English
+
+10.2 Build 1000 - 16th December 2021
+- CPU Integer test, made some changes to the order of operations in the test. This should stop them being optimised away on non-windows builds
+- CPU Test results, changed how results (Prime, Compression, Encryption and Sorting tests) are saved in baseline/results files so they are the same as the windows version of PerformanceTest and can be more easily used to manually calculate the CPU/Memory mark
+
+10.1 Build 1005 - 20th October 2021
+- Linux and Mac (command line tool): Added flag to enable debugging "-debug" </li>
+- Mac (command line tool): Added ability to specify which test suite(s) to autorun "-r [1-3]" [CPU, Memory, All tests]</li>
+
+10.1 Build 1004 - 27th August 2021
+- Linux: Added ability to specify which test suite(s) to autorun "-r [1-3]" [CPU, Memory, All tests]
+
+10.1 Build 1003 - 26th August 2021
+- Linux: Added autorun command line argument "-r" for easier automation of testing process.
+
+10.1 Build 1002 - 11th June 2021
+- Fixed problem generating upload checksum on Red Hat Linux
+
+10.1 Build 1001 - 3rd May 2021
+- Added memory test suite for Linux and Mac
