Jeff,
The class B requirement is there because the instructions tell you to
ATTACH the DASD to the installation guest. Obviously, if you put the
DASD in the directory, you don't need to issue an ATTACH command.

The part that I consider to be "not very useful" is the specific units that
are used. The relative number, whether REXXCPS, MIPS, BIPS, or something
else is very useful for exactly the purpose you describe. It's the name or
"unit of measure" you attach to the number that I think is somewhat
Actually, the 1800 factor gives a slightly conservative number, so 14 on a
box that is supposed to be capped at 18 MIPS is probably about right. If
you have the box I think you do, I would have said it is probably 16 MIPS,
so the 14 is "reasonably" close. When I developed the 1800 number we ha

I'm running a FLEX-ES box that is knee capped at 18 MIPS. I added
your formula to the end of REXXCPS. Here are
Anyone object to my collecting the numbers posted and
sending them to Mike, all in *one* email!

Actually, it is *most* useful to the individual user! I've
used it over the years to compare different pc systems and
new releases of Rexx on VM and ooRexx on the pc.
Before I retired from IBM, I used it regularly to give me an
idea of how the customer would perceive a change to a Rexx
