Hello, all.  We are involved in benchmarking personal workstations for possible
inclusion in a requirements contract for the NASA Lewis Research Center.  I am
tasked with benchmarking the graphics performance of each machine.  Each machine
will be running Figaro (from Template Graphics Software) as we have a site
liscence for this product.  

I was wondering if anyone had some graphics intensive Figaro programs which
they would be willing to e-mail to me.  I suppose "any" PHIGS programs would
be okay as well.  Something like read an image, display an image, draw some
number of N pixel lines in X seconds, etc.

I am pressed for time as the machines are here now and we start testing in
just a couple of days.  ANY PHIGS programs are welcome.

By the way, the machines being tested are: 

	Personal Iris (4D/20)	Silicon Graphics
	SPARCStation 1		Sun
	DECstation 3100		Digital
	AViiON 300 Series	Data General

Thanks in advance.  I can offer the results from these tests as payment for
anyone who is kind enough to reply.  Please e-mail me directly as I'm sure not
everyone needs to weed through this stuff.
