Don't reply to this article! I'm merely posting it because I haven't seen it here yet and it seems important. I have nothing to do with Lawrence Livermore!

These codes have been used extensively in evaluating high-performance computers. A copy of a report describing the results of the benchmark will be available the week of March 19. In addition to comparing three members of the Risc System family amongst themselves, the report compares the performance of the RS machines to two other RISC-based systems, two mid-range vector computers, and one high-end vector computer. If you are interested in obtaining a copy, please send e-mail to hjw@lanl.gov, INCLUDING YOUR POSTAL (*NOT EMAIL*) ADDRESS. Harvey Wasserman (505) 667-2136 P.S. If someone out there could post the above message to comp.sys.arch, I would appreciate it. I don't know how to do this. Thanks. -- John Campbell ...!arizona!naucse!jdc CAMPBELL@NAUVAX.bitnet unix?
