I'll ask Pat Stephenson to post his benchmarks. Please be aware that V3.0 ISIS is much faster and more carefully tuned than V2.1. I would expect the V2.1 numbers to be quite a bit slower than the V3.0 numbers we recently reported (ftp the "performance.ps.Z" file from ftp.cs.cornell.edu for a copy of this data) We currently have a student doing a new, very fancy performance tool. When (if?) he has this running I will certainly make it available. -- Kenneth P.
