[comp.benchmarks] SPECMark ratings for various systems

ras@sgfa.ssd.ray.com (Ralph A. Shaw) (05/28/91)

I'm in the process of showing some relative performance numbers
across a number of systems used internally.  Is there a known
list of SPECmark results kicking around, outside of contacting
SPEC, (or the vendors) independantly?   The systems I am interested
in are as follows:
	VAX 11/785	 
	Sun2/120		 Pyramid 9820
	Sun3/80			 Sun3/470
	Sun IPC			 Sparc2
	SGI Personal Iris	 SGI 4D220
	VAXstation 2000		 VAXstation 3100 (original model)
	VAX 8650		 VAX 6340
(The last four items are running VMS, rather than UNIX.  Is SPEC a
portable benchmark suite, or is it specific to UNIX?)

While I realize I can send a large check and get the source and run the
SPECmark tests myself, I'm somewhat constrained for time and finances
on this particular task, and accuracy is not that important, as it will
be fine-tuned over time.  Eventually, we may purchase the SPEC suite as well.
I am familiar with Aim, Muusbus, and other benchmark service suppliers.

Thanks for any info,
