No, the garbage is posting a 'benchmark' that runs on only one machine. Benchmarks are intended to be comparative. At their best, they run without modification on all machines to be compared. At worst, the mods are minor. Extensive changes (such as removing implementation extensions) invalidate any comparison. What you posted wasn't a benchmark, it was an example program for Mac C.
