In the original posting I stated: > Oh well, I might as well toss in another reference point, using > MSDOS as a host the Dhrystone 2.1 benchmark produced 4717.0 Dhrystones > per second for 250,000 iterations. This is in error. The Dhrystone measurement should have been 5717.0 Dhrystones per second. I now have confirmed this value using the PC532 as a host. The value is independent of wheither or not -DREG=register is defined. -- John Connin: manatee Orlando, Florida UUCP: {uunet,ge-dab,ucf-cs}!tarpit!tous!manatee!johnc

LSS stands for Logical Systems Software and is the one that comes with the Transputer Educational Kit aka TEK. Sorry if I wasn't clear.
