Somebody was asking for a better benchmark than VUPS earlier, I found WHETSTONE.C on
GORVAX which calculates MIPS. Not sure how much better it is than
VUPS.COM, but here are
some results:
GORVAX (SIMH VAX, on a Core i5)
Loops: 1000, Iterations: 1, Duration: 5 sec.
C Converted Double Precision Whetstones: 20.0 MIPS
CHIMPY (DS10)
Loops: 10000, Iterations: 1, Duration: 2 sec.
C Converted Double Precision Whetstones: 500.0 MIPS
RHESUS (rx2600)
Loops: 100000, Iterations: 1, Duration: 4 sec.
C Converted Double Precision Whetstones: 2500.0 MIPS
I've attached the C source to this message, and will put binaries for all three
platforms as well as the source in RHESUS::[.MEDIALIB.WHETSTONE]
