I've had a cursory look at the contents of the latter (second link in 
the above message).
Though it's obviously for developers, I wonder if an ordinary user like 
myself
(non-programmer) might use / find this of use, and perhaps provide some 
feedback?

IMHO, though I am on a standalone machine connected to the Internet, and not
running server, it appears that some of the tests *could* return useful 
information
on the state and performance of my hardware... am I correct in so assuming?
