- CONTENTS
-
- This package contains the well known 'Dhrystone' benchmark. It's
- available everwhere on the net - but if you wish to compile it on
- AMIGA, you need to alter the source a little bit. The source is
- adapted to take advantage of the 'timer.device' - NOTHING else has
- been altered.
-
-
- WHAT'S NEW
-
- I discovered even more optimization-switches at the compiler - now
- the executables are around 15% faster on my machine.
- Release date: 05-Jul-1995
-
-
- USAGE
- Just run your favourite version (1.0, 1.1 or 2.1) from your
- 'processors directory' (68000+, 68020+, 68040+). For each CPU, the
- benchmark runs at a useful (IMHO) loop count. The excutables are
- compiled under SAS/C 6.55.
-
-
- INFO
-
- I wished to have the standard dhrystone around - just from the
- original sources and optimized for my processor. So I could compare
- our workstations and a some PC's (under LINUX) to my A4000/040. Here
- are the results from DHRYSTONE 1.1:

- Machine: Clock: Result: Compiler:
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
- DEC ALPHA AXP 150MHz 427000 CC (GNU/C rates 377000, only)
- SUN SPARC 10 33MHz 83000 GNU/C
- SUN SPARC 20 ? MHZ 135000 GNU/C
- PC 486/DX33 33MHz 28000 GNU/C (under LINUX)
- PC 486/DX66 66MHz 53000 ? (under OS/2)
- PC 486/DX4/100 100MHz 83000 GNU/C (under LINUX)
- A4000/40 30MHz 44000 SAS/C
- A4000/60/Cyberstorm 60MHZ 90000 SAS/C
-
- Notice, that I NEVER compiled the benchmark 'register-optimized',
- because this benchmark should rate the speed of the
- processor-memory interface (while performing lots of 'string-copy')
- and not the capability of the CPU (especially at RISC-design) to
- store runtime variables at dozens of registers.
