This is the results of the PostScript Processing Speed Test (PPST for
short) on various PostScript devices. **YOU CAN GET A COPY OF THE TEST ON**
simtel archive mirrors in postscript. PPST is an index value which gives
you a comparative value where the reference device is an original Apple
LaserWriter. If the result says that PPST is 1.0, then the device is as
fast as an Apple LaserWriter, if PPST is 2.0, then it's twice as fast and
if PPST is 0.5 then your device is only half it's speed. PPST-G is for
graphics speed (Level 2 is faster because of interpreter implementations),
PPST-R is for RAM speed, PPST-M is for math opperations speed and, of
course, PPST is a generalized index value which should give you a good
idea of how fast the device is.
Please keep in mind that this is not in any way a sure-fire way of
knowing if a device will be faster for your particular application or not.
It may give you a good idea, but, for example, the graphics speed index
doesn't neccessarily mean that your device will be faster for graphics
application, it depends on the printer driver your application has. I don't
want to get in to too much discussion about this, but let's just say that
a WordPerfect document with 5 graphics (.WPG) images in a page will not
necessarily print faster with a printer that has a larger PPST-G value,
but it probably will. (it REALLY depends on the printer driver, how it
was written).
