Spiritual Successor of the Legendary FactorioBox - Factorio Bench
Posted: Sat Aug 29, 2026 10:06 am
Hello, engineers!
Earlier this year, FactorioBox - one of the best community-hosted Factorio benchmarking projects - went permanently offline. It was a shame to lose such a useful resource, so I decided to build a spiritual successor:
https://factoriobench.com/
Using archived pages from the Wayback Machine, I recovered as many historical maps and benchmark results as possible. Not everything survived, so maps whose files could not be recovered remain visible but are marked as missing and read-only until someone reuploads the original save (65 out of 761).
Factorio Bench currently offers just about the same thing as the FactorioBox did:
- Historical FactorioBox results and maps
- Ability to upload new maps
- Windows and Linux benchmarking scripts
- CPU rankings and searchable results
- Version-aware comparison maps
- A minimal, readable interface without accounts or unnecessary features, same as before
The scripts run the benchmark using an isolated, mod-free Factorio environment, display everything that will be submitted, and ask for confirmation first. Feedback and testing would be greatly appreciated. Also keep in mind this runs on a minimal server, so it might choke if we all open it at once.
If you have any missing FactorioBox saves, please upload them, the exact original file can restore its archived map entry and make it usable again.
