I'm not aware of standard tests (and if anyone know some, please let me know). Here is how I did my tests for zlib, hextile and tight [1]. I installed a kubuntu with qemu and hacked SDL_viewer example from libvncserver to be able to select an encoding (I can give you the line to modify if you want). Then launched (several times) qemu with ./qemu -m 512 -hda kubuntu.img -vnc :0 & sleep 0.5; ./SDL_viewer 127.0.0.1 On another term I launch tcpdump -i lo0 -nvv port 5900 | python tcpstat.py > dump.csv (but you can use wireshark, etc ...)
