Maybe I should not upgrade to 41 since my 10/30 does 161290 ! What C-compiler are you using? Mine is gcc 2.1 (gcc -O). I have an old version of sun C so I don't use it very much... (maybe you used the c-compiler that comes with the system... that doesn't generate good code.. you should buy the compiler separately) >Musbus I/O test: > >File Size: 250 blocks > Write: >HP9000/735 12500.0 kBytes/s >Sun SS10 2483.7 kBytes/s > Read: >HP9000/735 25000.0 kBytes/s >Sun SS10 10869.6 kBytes/s > Copy: >HP9000/735 7638.9 kBytes/s >Sun SS10 2016.9 kBytes/s > After running byte benchmarks on ss10/30 and hp 720 I don't somehow trust these results. SS10/30 was able to keep up over 2meg on file copy where as 720 did only 700 kb! The file size 250 blocks makes me a bit suspicious.. How much memory did 735 and 10/41 have? What kind of disks? (720 had 64 meg, ss10/30 32 meg, disk for ss10/30 was maxtor scsi-2.. I don't remember the type numbers now.., I don't know about disk type used with 720 in byte benchmark because the result was included with the source). I actually run the test by myself on 720 but the result was even worse 300 kb! Where did you manage to get 10/41 anyway????
