 This script automates the execution of the best benchmarking tools in the industry. Included are several tests to check the performance of critical areas of a server: disk performance with [fio](https://github.com/axboe/fio), network performance with [iperf3](https://github.com/esnet/iperf), and CPU/memory performance with [Geekbench](https://www.geekbench.com/). The script is designed to not require any external dependencies to be installed nor elevated privileges to run.
