Brief Help file for !Desk_Bogo
This version: 1.00
Author: Julyan Bristow
Date: April 1996
Purpose: Very Little
This is just a very quick utility I threw together in a few hours, just for
the hell of it. I had received a copy of !Bogo_Mips on a magazine disk, or
similar, and when I ran it was disappointed to see that it was not a wimp
application. Hence this masterpiece, !Desk_Bogo, a desktop front end for
!Bogo_Mips.
This application is not quite as small as I would have liked it to be, but
it's not too bad. I have included the entire original distribution of
!Bogo_Mips (in the directory 'original') as this is where the actual speed
test code came from (ie that part of it is not my own work). I have also
included the C source code for the entire application so that you can see
what is in it. You can also confirm that I have not altered the original
code other than to make the changes required to make the bogo_mips code be
called as a subroutine rather than being the main routine.
You may criticise my code in any way that you wish. There is a call to two
routines from my own library ("JobLib") of which the source code is not
included. If you wish for a copy of my library, please write to me for a
copy because otherwise you cannot recompile the code. (It's not all that
great a library, but it does what I want).
I have also compared the results of my desktop version with that of the
original and there is no difference in results. On my Risc PC 600 the
result is 11.65 BogoMips. Please let me know what your system gives.
