Yes, it would be fantastic to have *real* numbers which represented the
overall *system* performance, in particular, expressing *multi-user*
cpu & i/o throughput, similar perhaps to the transaction processing
benchmarks used on certain types of systems. I have recently seen some
multi-user benchmarks called MUSBUS 5.2 and AIM III for various SGI
machines, but these tests do not yet appear to be in wide use, nor do
I have any feeling for how valid a measurement they would provide.
Anyone care to comment about this?
