The applications seem so specialized as to make most comparisons into apples versus oranges. Are there any standard, "representative" tasks that could be used to indicate the relative merit of a machine/OS? In evaluating a machine, do you rely mainly on interrupt latency measures, or on what? Please email responses and I will post a summary. Thanks. -- Mark Smotherman, Comp. Sci.
