Where did the 48.5 number come from? <snip> A bit late on this maybe but:
Determine the SU per second of your machine You can get this with the following REXX code CVT = STORAGE(10,4) RMCT = STORAGE(D2X(C2D(CVT)+604),4) SU = STORAGE(D2X(C2D(RMCT)+64),4) SU = 16000000/C2D(SU) For a 301 this would be 21857.9235 1 CPU second is therefor 21857.9235 Service Units Divide this figure by 48.5 to get MIPS = 450.678835 </snip> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
