Hello How do I parse the identification field in /proc/cpuinfo? The other ones I understand. The one I have access to says "processor 0: version = FF, identification = 035667, machine = 9672"
I am trying to estimate the performance of our application on different S390/zSeries systems, and for the CPU bound parts I am interested in not only the "MIPS rating" and "MHZ rating" but also things like: -- How "good" is the S390 backend of gcc compared to, say, IA32? -- Cache sizes and speeds (bw and lat) for the different levels of cache? (I could use lmbench, but I only have access to one CPU) -- Issue width, pipeline stages, and similar micro-arch information. (this is mostly for personal interest, I will probably not code any custom assembly for S390, and we have none for other platforms) Right now my Intel P3 733 is 10 times faster than the Linux guest :-( (But this will change :-)) Regards Erik
