	Does anybody know of a source of Whetstone/Dhrystone/Etal.
	numbers that runs all the way from micros to mainframes ?

	At my local site they're trying to create a relative
	performance taxonomy for all systems, and I need some sort
	of apple-to-apple (no puns intended) comparison for a
	wide range of systems, both new and old (hey, this is
	government work, so don't try to make any sense out of it).

	I seem to recall such a list of Dhrystones floating about the
	net several years ago.

	Of course this doesn't take things like I/O bandwidth into
	account... so any suggestions people have are appreciated.

	Thanks,
	rcs
