Remarks:
* Whetstone/Dhrystone are 32-bit DOS results
+ SPEC ratios recomputed from SPEC timings (computed wrong in report)
& note huge increase in SPEC floating point performance over previous results
due to new experimental FORTRAN compiler
# machine with AMD 386-40/Cyrix 83D87-40/128 kB cache is estimated by me at:
7.7 SPECint, 4.5 SPECfp, 5.8 SPECmark,
5000 double prec. Whetstones, 23000 Dhrystones,
0.6 Linpack double prec. MFlops
These estimates based on my own measurements and data from:
