[net.sources] benchmarks needed

gus@Shasta.ARPA (09/26/85)

I am looking for benchmark programs which have been heavily used and
well known. I am planning on doing a comparitive review of all native
code compilers generating code for the Macintosh. I am interested in anything
you might have written in C, Pascal, Modula 2, FORTRAN, or COBOL. Pleas
respond to me via EMAIL to gus@su-shasta.

I am working on a "conglomerate" benchmark program which will test as many
aspects of a compiler as possible. Once complete, I plan to publish my 
results in one of the Mac related magazines, and post the sources on-line.

The list of compilers I am planning to initially review are...

Absoft Fortran
Aztec C
Consulair C
DesMet C
Green Hills C
ETZH Modula 2 
Hippo C
Lisa Pascal
Megamax C
Micro Focus Cobol
Rascal
Softworks C
SuMacc C

Any help will be appreciated. I have several benchmarks already, but my list
is by no means complete, so any help will be appreciated
