Just for the record, I've never heard of Cromemco.
As to the performance figures vs. DEC, they were taken
from Datamation & Unix
World magazines and a UNIX USENET study, this being in late 1986.
Interestingly enough, Dhrystone benchmarks are:
Cromix CS420: 3703
VAX11/785 2136
VAX11/780 1662
MicroVAX-II 1612
VAX11/750 1091
IBM RT 1333
While the Whetstone scores make the MicroVAX look a lot
better:
CS420 1,050,000
MicroVAX II 877,000
VAX11/780 476,000
IBM RT 200,000
Cromemco Z80 7,000
Isn't this rather odd? The MicroVAX II is supposed to be 0,5 VUP, right? So
what have the DEC engineers done to make it just as fast in the Dhrystone and
even faster than the 11/780 in the Whetstone benchmarks?
