I couldn't connect to the above URL but a quick search on AltaVista gave
me this URL where I could download version 3.11 of the benchmark:
http://www.linuxnow.com/submit.html
I ran it on a selection of hardware, just for kicks. [Warning: Severe
apples and oranges filter should be applied to the following
information!]
On all platforms I simply did a 'make' and a './Run'. The platforms
tested were:
- PentiumPRO @ 180 MHz, 128 MB RAM, IDE disks, NetBSD/i386 1.3
- Pentium @ 90 MHz, 64 MB RAM, IDE disks, NetBSD/i386 1.3E (UVM,
PMAP_NEW)
- Macintosh II (M68030 @ 32 MHz accel.), 20 MB RAM, SCSI disks,
NetBSD/mac68k 1.3
- 386SX @ 16 MHz, 8 MB RAM, IDE disks, Linux 1.2.13
- MicroVAX II, 9 MB RAM, SCSI disks, NetBSD/vax 1.3E
All systems were in multi-user with little or no load.
The results can be browsed at:
http://archive.bitcon.no/byte/
Summary (of the AVERAGE results from the reports):
PPRO: 12.7
P90: 3.8
MacII: 0.5
386SX: 0.4
VAX: 0.4
