Zcashbenchmark
A simple script to run zcash benchmark on linux
Introduction
The script will run zcash-cli zcbenchmark solveequihash 20 to run 20 benchmark tests (takes ~20 minutes),
Then calculate the average time of those results (total time / 20) to get your 'solve equihash' time.
The output this something like this:
