The subject line pretty much says it all.  I can use FTP, mail server, or uucp.
We have an opportunity to play with some RS/6000's next week and I have heard
that these are better benchmarks than some of the others around.

On a somewhat more general issue, does anyone know of any good articles/papers
describing the strengths and weaknesses of the various benchmark programs?

Assuming I can get copies of the above programs (or other good ones) , I'll
post the results or e-mail to those interested.

Thanks,
Chris
