   Could some kind soul please email (or post) a recent table of
specmarks for workstations? I recall a pretty good table being posted
when the newest HP workstations were announced. Unfortunately I didn't
save it.

   Our lab simulates and eventually constructs dynamically balancing
legged robots. We simulate robots as linkages of multiple rigid bodies
with torques and forces and end up with a lot of dot products and
miscellaneous floating point adds and multiplies. We are looking for a
workstation to simulate more complex robots faster.

   This kind of problem can benefit as much from a smart optimizing
compiler as from a fast CPU, so it would be helpful to know how
different compilers do on the same workstation (I know this is a lot to
ask.) Thanks.
