[comp.sys.sequent] Parallel Benchmarking Programs

steve@mullian.ee.mu.OZ.AU (Steve Mabbs) (05/31/90)

Can anyone provide pointers to benchmarking software for parallel
systems?  I've written a tool called 'ptrace' for the Sequent Symmetry
which single-steps through processes (watching creation of children
and also tracing them), reporting statistics on possible memory contention,
etc.  What I need are some programs which are considered to be psuedo-
standard tests  e.g. is there a parallel grep, tar or dhrystone for the
Sequent?

Thanks,

	Steve
