Vintage benchmarks adapted for Amiga like  computers  -  (re)coded  by  Dino
Papararo (Fl@sh)
AmigaOS4/MorphOS and now AmigaOS3 binaries to bench PowerPc and  MC68K  CPUs
speed.  Now  you  can bench with same algorithms a great number of amigalike
systems about respective cpu/fpu and memory performances. For  68k  binaries
is requied at least a 68ec020 cpu and an 68881 fpu.

For Dhrystone benchs there are three versions of binaries based on V1 and V2
classic algorithms, each for respective AmigaOS version.

For Whetstone benchs there are three versions of binaries based on V1 and V2
classic algorithms, each for respective AmigaOS version.

For Sieve benchs there are three  versions of  binaries,  based  on  classic
algorithm of 'Byte magazine' Sieve, each for respective AmigaOS version.

For BogoMIPS benchs there are three versions of binaries, based  on  classic
algorithm of Linux kernel, each for respective AmigaOS version.

For QuickSort benchs there are three versions of binaries, each for respective 
AmigaOS version.

Important notes:
C Source codes are included. Developed and tested under MorphOS (PowerMac G5
quad - GCC v9) and OS4.1fe (Pegasos II - GCC v8.4). Program is heavily based
on the classic sources codes taken over internet, changes  are  minimal  and
targeted  only  for  a  better  compile (GCC without any optimization) under
amigalike systems and focused mainly on timing code. Some tests for OS4 runs
well  under  MorphOS  via OS4EMU while all AmigaOS3 runs on both MorphOS and
OS4.1fe systems ;-)

To do:
build a new program to  control  all  single  benchs  and  elaborate  single
results in one screen.

History:
New in v1.4 version added classic Quicksort benchmark.
New in v1.3 version added BogoMIPS benchmark, fix readme default tool
New in v1.2 version added AmigaOS3 binaries, fixed bugs and inconcistencies.
New in v1.1 version added Sieve benchmark based on "byte magazine".
New in v1.0 version first version released!

Enjoy, Amiga Rulez!
