wantead - dead or alive - benchmarks (Score:3, Informative)
<blink>yes please</blink>.We (p5p) are looking for a decent benchmark to replace perlbench. (Most recently Alan asking about a decent benchmark [mpe.mpg.de]). I've suggested spamassassin [mpe.mpg.de] which would work as a general single number "how fast is perl?", but what we'd really like is a meaningful set of benchmarks where we can see things like "oh, this patch makes OO method calls 181% faster" [mpe.mpg.de] (That was Arthur. Mine are usually "grrr, this patch makes no difference to any perlbench test. Is it me or is it perlbench?")
