I'm delighted that you are interested in this benchmarking stuff. Much needed. Thank you!
| So I still very much like the approach taken by the venerable nofib | suite where it includes not only the "real" programs, but also the | microbenchmarks and the small programs; you don't have to use these in | published results, but they're invaluable to us compiler developers, and | having a shared framework for all the benchmarks makes things a lot easier. Yes yes. It's *essential* to retain the micro-benchmarks. They often show up in high relief a performance regression that would be hidden or much less prominent in a big program. The three-way split imaginary/spectral/real has served us well. Let's keep it!
