What is the point of all of these *stone benchmark postings?
All you are doing is testing the compiler quality.

Why not write a file handling benchmark that sequentially
and randomly accesses a number of files? Only use the stock
ACK compiler for the tests. This would give an interesting
set of numbers for file system performance on different machines.
