Hi all,
I've written a very portable CPU benchmark aimed at retro computers. It runs on anything from 8088 to Core i7, supporting ARM, Intel, Motorola etc. It runs in DOS, Windows, Linux, macOS. All I need is a it of time to make it run on AmigaOS, OS9, OS8, etc.
It is designed not only to be super-portable but also scale properly. So you can compare a 286 to a Pentium III and a Motorola 68030 to a Pentium IV and actually make sense. It tests CPU operations (integer, floating point), multicore and memory operations.
It is not a 100% refutable proof provider but it is pretty close to that. I want to make it open-source so that we can all contribute to it.
Anyone interested in looking at it, running it, adding more tests to it?
I have executable for 16bit DOS, 32bit Windows, Linux (Intel 16bit and 32bit and 64bit and ARM), macOS (16bit and 32bit and 64bit). And of course makefiles and projects to build your own. The proper scalability is nice.
