Hello all: I am looking for a non-trivial C++ benchmark/application similar to the Spec benchmarks to benchmark a processor that we are working on. Ideally, it would be non-device dependent using only the most rudimentary unix system calls (open, close, read, write, etc) run for a reasonable length of time (minutes) and produce an "answer" that could be verfied. The code does not have to be in the public domain, we would be willing to pay for the right to compile and test it, although we would not actually sell or re-distribute it or the executables. Interviews was recommended to me as a non-trivial C++ application but it must run under X and out simulator doesnt support the X calls. Please reply by email. Thanks. -- Motorola Semiconductor Inc.

How about using libg++? The tests directory contains code which takes a fair bit of time to calculate. You can make the code arbitrarily complicated. Michael
