README file from "timer" directory

           
                  ~4Dgifts/src/exampleCode/MP/timer README


    
    This subtree demonstrates the use of a high resolution timer of the io3 
    board on an r4k-based SGI system.  The io3 clock is 16 Mhz, 32 bits.  
    Period is ~ 268 seconds.  Getitimer has a 100 Hz default resolution.  
    With ftimer(1) and by changing FASTHZ in /usr/sysgen/master.d/kernel it
    is possible to bring the resolution up to 1800 (Power Series systems), 
    i.e., 555 microseconds.  This resolution is too coarse for the purpose 
    of some measurements.

    Two sub-directories containing contrasting Linpack 100 examples using 
    a regular and the high resolution timers are shown.  The Linpack 100 
    benchmark takes about .07 second to run and thus the use of a higher 
    resolution timer is necessary.

    Also included is a similar io4 timer for the challenge system.
