Title: Megaflop comparisons of various computers

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/6633019· OSTI ID:6633019

A test program and results obtained by running this program on a wide range of computers of interest to Sandia National Laboratories are described. The program, written in FORTRAN, was designed to estimate the speed with which a target computer could perform floating-point operations requested by a FORTRAN programer. Input/output operations are not timed. Thus, the results depend not only upon the basic underlying speed of the computer, but also upon the intelligence of the FORTRAN compiler. 2 tables.
