TSCP is a chess program with a built-in benchmark. The test finishes quickly with a message of “The test run ended quickly”, though I get a result. The overview profile suggests a single-threaded test.

AMD overview metrics give a very high front-end time and low backend time.

AMD metrics show very low on cpu
