   Could you please run the following program on the 040.  It is a very
   simple program but numerous folks over in 'comp.benchmarks' have run
   it on their systems and it would be interesting to see where the 
   NEXT 040 fits.........

--Results as measured and posted, so far:
Using gcc-1.39 -O on the 20Mhz SUN 3/80
Chasun > time dbl-b
r = 16.695311
RunTime = 122.416667
122.440u 0.100s 2:03.02 99.5% 0+10k 0+0io 0pf+0w

Using cc -O on the 20Mhz SUN 3/80( and setting i=1000000 so as to finish!)
Chasun > time dbl-s
r = 16.695311
RunTime = 176.566667   (doing only one-tenth the work)   8-(

Using cc -O on the SUN Sparc1 4/60
Salsa > time dbl-b
r = 16.695311
RunTime = 50.266667
50.290u 0.040s 0:50.40 99.8% 0+132k 0+0io 0pf+0w

Using the NeXT 68040(25 Mhz 68040)
----test 1-----Michael D Mellinger
handel> cc -O bench.c
handel> time a.out
r = 16.695311
RunTime = 26.133333
26.137u 0.171s 0:26.78 98% 0+0k 0+0io 0pf+0w
----test 2----Steven M. Boker----
datran2% cc bench1.c     <note the difference without -O(cjp)>
datran2% a.out
r = 16.695311
RunTime = 29.116667

Using cc -O on the IBMrisc6000-320
Ribs > time dbl-b
r = 16.695311
RunTime = 11.690000
11.69u   0.1s   0:11    99%   2+23k 0+0io 1pf+0w


To me, with a NeXTslab sitting on the desk next to my SUN 3/80 and across
the hallway from four IBMrisc6000-320 systems, the NeXT-2.0 performs O.K.
Cheers!Chas.
