I ran the dhrystone suite on my amiga 1000 last night. compiled with Lattice 1.x 454 dhrystones/sec compiled with Lattice 5.04, no optimize 840 compiled with Lattice 5.04, optimize 1075 dhrystones/sec who said that the global optimizer wasn't worth it? for little things maybe not but 1 dhrystone is 100 lines of code executed and with the optimizer my amiga1000 can do 230 * 100 = 23000 lines of code more each and every second. I call that impressive. btw - sun 3/260 with Metaware HighC compiler 10172/sec sun 3/260 with standard cc 6138/sec ibm ps/2-80 with lots of ram 4000/sec ibm 6000 28000/sec!!! -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Alan McDonley, Martin Marietta Information and Communication Systems (303) 977-3347 mcdonley@inlatlas.den.mmc.com P.O.Box 1260 ncar!dinl!mcdonley Denver,CO 80201-1260 Opinions are my own, not my employer's. --------------------------------------------------------------------------
