PERFORMANCE TESTING OF SOME ADA PROGRAMMING CONTRUCTS
SRI is developing a packet switched network node, using the Ada
programming language, and using the SUN Microsystem processor board as
the target hardware, which contains a MC68000. We have run some timing
measurements on specially written Ada test programs in order to
determine how to optimally use tasking, rendevous, selects, and
parameter passing, and also to make an early prediction on the
packet-per-second throughput of the system.
The test were compiled with the Telesoft Ada Compiler on a Diskless SUN
Workstation, running UNIX 4.1c bsd. The workstation was configured
with 2 megabytes of local memory, and only a single user was logged in.
The results, along with the benchmarks, have been posted to net.sources.
I got this from the EV-INFORMATION login on ECLB. Any questions? Don't ask
me!
regards,
joe
