This document provides a brief description of some of the benchmarks that Metrowerks uses to measure the performance of our compilers. Much of this document is not an original work and the authors make no claims to that end. Parts were borrowed directly from web pages on the Internet. The benchmark results contained herein represent the results we have obtained from repeated runs of the benchmarks detailed below.
Results vary from one run to the next, from one PC to another with identical hardware.
Therefore we make no claims concerning the absolute accuracy of our benchmark results. On your computer, you may get different benchmark values. Short Description Numeric sort Sorts an array of 32-bit integers. String sort Sorts an array of strings of arbitrary length. Bitfield Executes a variety of bit manipulation functions.
