DTA    1.00    DataTransferAnalysis (Drive Speed)


     The following is an example of some of the useful information DTA
     will display for you.    

       CPU: 68040/68882

       Volume: DH1 (DCFFS)

       Processing file "dl:LionKing.lha".

       Read 946054 bytes / 923.9K in 0 seconds and ~432129 microseconds.

       Data Transfer Analysis (DTA) = 2.1M/second (2189286 bytes/second).

     The idea behind this very simple/crude program is to give you an
     average idea of how well your machine/controller/drive are performing
     together.  The whole "analysis" depends on the number of buffers and
     what type of memory they are in, your drive/controller speed, your
     system's CPU load, the maxtransfer and DMA settings, file system, ...

     This program just samples the time, reads a LARGE file, and samples
     the time again...
