Since I recently cleaned out my mailbox, I probably deleted the answers to
these questions, so I'll have to ask again. I have set up my system at
home to run both Windows 98 (which I have for some time) and Linux (which
I'm getting into). As a result, I have a few questions about running mprime.
1. Is it possible to have Prime95 and mprime share the same files so that
my system tests the same number independant of the OS? (That is, are the
files compatible?)
2. If it is (or if a conversion program is easy to write), does this
compromise the integrity of the test so that it really shouldn't be done?
3. How does the efficiency of mprime compare to Prime95? (That is, I'm
getting 0.207 s/iteration under Prime95 right now. How would mprime handle
a comparable number?)
Apologies for asking the previously asked.
