Thanx. I have a little time for developing, because I have to study, but I am still trying to improve it.

It seems that it bangs the hardware for some stuff.

is it too much to ask to ask WHAT IS IT? I can't tell from the posting or the site - is it a game, SQL database, or what?

It's a system identification program, similar to the classic SysInfo, that measures the speed of your machine and gives a comparison to other specifications.

My A4K actually outperforms all but the Athlon 1700 and the Pegasos.
...I'm stunned. =^)

Would you like to tell us some more about your system.

In reply to Comment 5 (Rene W. Olsen):
Is this the reason why Pegasos performed so badly in the tests.
Twice the speed of an 060/60 just doesn't seem right for a 600MHz G3
emulating 68k.

In reply to Comment 11 (Rob):
Try to run the 68k test twice : the performance gets muuuch
better thanks to the JIT emulation...

In reply to Comment 12 (mahen):
but is that the true image then? the "feel" of the first run would be closer to reality in not thaaat long repeated sequences of math operations (or anything else - JITs can be fast in long running benchmarks, but feel quite sloppy anyway..
(note this is targeted at JITs in general, not specifically the one in mos)

In reply to Comment 13 (Anonymous):
from mos featurelist :
Trance - Just In Time 68k compiler (JIT)
Trance translates 68k program code to native PPC code. Translated code is kept in memory, so when running same code again, translated code can be run directly.
thats probably why running the test twice improves the speed....

In reply to Comment 11 (Rob):
Because AmiGod2 throws thousands of hits that get debugged to the serial port
which slows it down a lot.

Come on guys, turn on your brain (benchmarks contain loops that are executed often, JIT only slows down the first pass).

Sure, I've got an A4000/Power Tower, CSPPC 60/233 w/64 megs, PIV (P96) & OS3.9
Nothing special really.

does this mean that all Jit engines work this way ? also the OS4 one and
UAE one ?

Do all current copies of MorphOS have the debug code enabled?
If so, no speed tests will be accurate. (Assuming the debug code will
eventually be removed.)

In reply to Comment 19 (Don Cox):
I ran the tests again with the new version. Amithlon results are
within about 2% of last time.
The maths tests are slow on MorphOS (no doubt because of the debug),
but the graphics and Intuition tests come out slightly faster than on
my Amithlon.
My guess is that the graphics card is the main factor here - the
Amithlon is using a TNT2 while the Pegasos has a Voodoo4.
Likewise my A4000, with a Picasso II card, is slower than Jerry's
