I guess there will be two numbers widely quoted from the
new SDM benchmarks: a peak throughput for KENBUS and a peak
throughput for SDET. Unfortunately, there is no mention in the
SPEC literature/press announcements of abbreviated labels for those numbers.
I propose that a KENBUS peak throughput of 2000 scripts per hour
be abbreviated as "2000 KPT" and an SDET peak throughput of 2000 scripts
per hour be abbreviated as "2000 SPT". Of course, one should always
say somewhere that the numbers were produced by SDM version 1.0.
I think that the KPT [KENBUS Peak Throughput] and SPT [SDET Peak
Throughput] abbreviations will save a lot of time and space when reporting.
