I have a bunch of ideas to speed up spin and mutex locks somewhat. For this I need benchmarks to test different modifications. While the micro-benchmark from rwatson@ is a good way to quickly test modifications to weed out unlikely candidates - jhb@ tests have shown that micro and macro-benchmarks do not always show the same result. Running benchmarks and booting takes a lot of time. Since this is NOT one my favorite tasks I want to run generally accepted benchmarks so I can test (boot) each modification exactly once for each test machine. If you think I should run certain benchmarks with certain parameters please tell me BEFORE I start testing! Thanks Stephan
