README for lmbench 1.0 net release.

In general, you can look at Makefiles to get more information.  There is
Postscript documentation in PS as well as the source from which 
thos files are derived in doc.

To run the benchmark, you should be able to say:

	make results

If you want to see how you did compared to the other system results
included here, say

	make see

If you have a system that is not represented here, or you got better
numbers than I did, please send me the results.  Please send your
results lm@sgi.com after you believe you have obtained, good, stable
numbers.  Be warned that many of these benchmarks are sensitive to
other things being run on the system, mainly from CPU cache and CPU
cycle effects.  So make sure your screen saver is not running, etc.

It's a good idea to do several runs and compare the output like so

	make results
	make rerun
	make rerun
	make rerun
	cd Results && make LIST=<your OS>/*

Please do not send me or post multi processor results.  This is a
uniprocessor benchmark suite.  The only MP results that are acceptable
are results from an MP with only one processor enabled.
