Talk:Dhrystone

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] MDIPS

If MDIPS are used with the Dhrystone method, then why isn't it mentioned in this article? Couldn't we add a secion here and then we could "merge" the two articles. The MDIPS page is an almost empty stub. Andrew Powell 20:14, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

The factor for converting Dhrystone to DMIPS in the page is 1757, but on the reference is 1857. Which is the correct one ?

[edit] Outdated

The article seems to be a little dated in its praise of Dhrystone for use as a benchmark. I added criticisms of the algorithm and reference to a statement made by the author himself that the benchmark was outmoded and should not be used. Starseeker shkm 03:48, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
