I have had a few requests to run the Drystone benchmark on my
DSI-32 board, but I cannot find a listing of it anywhere. I would
run it immediately if someone would post it on net.sources or mail
it to me. By the way, here is a little more information that I have
found:
The Fortran library is the same one shipped with 4.2 BSD UNIX.
UNIX (version unknown) is being beta tested on the DSI now.
A 4 Mbyte board is being tested.
WHETSTONE benchmark:
C: optimized - 4.11 sec
non-opt - 4.40 sec
F77: optimized - 4.45 sec
non-opt - 4.45 sec
I would like to see some talk about 32032 vs. 68020 vs. 80386 here in
.16k land. The people at Definicon say that the 68020 still has bugs
and that Motorola's math processor doesn`t work well. It seems that
the 32032 is the most VAX-like. Would this make it better for those
surrounded by VAXen?
To Mr. Krist: My name was americanized from Polish. I don't know the
spelling at the moment.
We don't need no stinking 8088s,
