- Tired of rebooting your system so you can see how many BogoMIPS it's
- running at today? Want to impress your friends? Be the first person
- on your block to run the standalone bogomips program. Now you can
- measure BogoMIPs all day long without having to bring your system
- down. This could be the "killer app" that Linux has been waiting for.
-
- "Bogomips" is a standalone program that displays your system
- performance using one of the world's most recognized benchmarks. It
- uses the same code that is used in the Linux kernel while booting, but
- runs as a user program.
-
- A man page and make file are included. Detailed instructions for
- building, running, and installing are in the file INSTALLNG.
-
- Version 1.3 of BogoMIPs is now portable and should run on any system
- that supports an ANSI C compiler and library.
-
- The package is available from sunsite.unc.edu in the directory
- /pub/Linux/system/Misc

- P.S. Don't forget to post your results to the net and impress
- thousands of people around the world!
