I use Unigine Heaven to benchmark Linux systems. A colleague's friend has an epic spreadsheet of Heaven benchmarks across many configurations, and he submitted a few I've done. I ran it at home on my Linux desktop. For shits and giggles, I also downloaded the Windows version and ran it in Proton, and got a 30% performance boost! I suspect that a lot of that is due to the dxvk library that Proton uses, and the multithreading that it introduces translating D3D11 calls to Vulkan.
With a lot of games you can put DXVK DLLs in its folder and get better performance: https://github.com/doitsujin/dxvk/releases
There's a "newer" (almost ten years old) Unigine benchmark available called Superposition you should check out.

I'm aware. I work in ewaste recycling, and most of the machines I come across are about 10 years old. I'm also a fan of JayzTwoCents. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ukb5tlT4IuQ
