Werner writes in his e-mail of 9-Dec-92:

On a SparcStation 10 running SunOS 4.1.3 GAP got 48329 GAPstones.
It was compiled with cc and -O4 and ran with 2 MB of startup memory.
Started with 8 MB it achieved 49585 GAPstones.

Thanks. Which SparcStation 10 is it? A model 41 perhaps?

Werner's e-mail reminds me of something else I forgot. The test should
be performed with 2 MB of memory, i.e., with option '-m 2m'.

As another result.   On a  IBM PC  with 80486  DX 50 with 386BSD compiled
with GNU gcc  2.3.1  options '-O2', GAP  3.2  achieves  32700  GAPstones.
Pretty fast for such a cheap system.

Martin.
