Opus is an open audio codec. Opus is a lossy audio compression format designed primarily for interactive real-time applications over the Internet. This test uses Opus-Tools and measures the time required to encode a WAV file to Opus five times.
To run this test with the Phoronix Test Suite, the basic command is: phoronix-test-suite benchmark encode-opus.

pts/encode-opus-1.0.0 [View Source] Thu, 04 Oct 2012 07:16:56 GMT Initial commit of a simple test profile that measures the system performance at encoding and decoding to the Opus Audio Codec.
OpenBenchmarking.org metrics for this test profile configuration based on 32 public results since 11 September 2024 with the latest data as of 16 September 2024.
Below is an overview of the generalized performance for components where there is sufficient statistically significant data based upon user-uploaded results. It is important to keep in mind particularly in the Linux/open-source space there can be vastly different OS configurations, with this overview intended to offer just general guidance as to the performance expectations.
Based on OpenBenchmarking.org data, the selected test / test configuration (Opus Codec Encoding 1.5.2 - WAV To Opus Encode) has an average run-time of 4 minutes. By default this test profile is set to run at least 5 times but may increase if the standard deviation exceeds pre-defined defaults or other calculations deem additional runs necessary for greater statistical accuracy of the result.
Notable Instruction Set Usage
Notable instruction set extensions supported by this test, based on an automatic analysis by the Phoronix Test Suite / OpenBenchmarking.org analytics engine.
Requires passing a supported compiler/build flag (verified with targets: cascadelake, sapphirerapids).
(ZMM REGISTER USE)
