For the CPU and most other things you can use
nice -19 stress-ng -c 4 --metrics --timeout 60s
For the GPU they suggest GeeXLab at geeks3d.com.

Benchmark on one machine too extreme
Running that command to bench your RPi is not so acurate. That command will burn 1/4 cores of your Pi, thats why you get weirds results. Try to activate all 4 cores at 100%.

Pi 4 performance against x86 - CI/CD server with Java/Maven
Jenkins and Maven by themselves don't consume any significant CPU time. You need to profile specific implementations of the compilers you're going to use. If you're interested in GCC and don't have a ...

Benchmark on one machine too extreme
For what it's worth, I just ran that same test on a stock Raspberry Pi 3B running Raspbian Jessie and it completed in 24.3 seconds. It took 73.4 s on a Model B rev 2 running Wheezy.
Unless you have ...

Can I use Raspberry pi as NAS with Raid 1 and encrypted file systems?
I expect this can be made to 'work' (you will need 4 x USB-SATA 'dongles'), however throughput will be hopelessly slow ...
All 4 USB ports & Etrhernet (on the B+ or a A/B with external Hub) are ...
