Hi Sven,

I have executed a Dhrystone 2.1 benchmark on my uClinux system and get
an extremely low result, about 0.0259 DMIPS (I also used a stopwatch
to confirm it). The datasheet of the processor says 211 DMIPS!

It seems like user space applications don't get scheduled as much as
they could have been.

What hardware?
What software versions?

If a system has only one runnable process then it will get
scheduled all CPU time. And normal kernel house keeping
functions (like system timer) user a very small fraction of
total CPU time.

-Does anyone know a way to give an application more CPU time?

Is cache enabled?

Are you using the same dhrystone code as was used to
generate the vendors number?

Regards
Greg
