Benchmarking Dyalog APL

| I am currently running Dyalog APL under Windows XP Pro which is running under
Parallels Desktop which is running under Mac OS X. I would be interested in
some benchmarks which would hopefully give me a rough idea as to how the
performance of this lash-up compares with something less contorted.

In the first comparison of Dyalog APL running on my setup and a less
contorted version we have the following....
I'm running on a MacBook Pro with a 2.16 GHz Intel Core Duo processor and 2
GB of 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM.
The other party is running on a Dell/XP64 Pentium 4 2.99 GHz processor with 2
GB of RAM.
I ran the benchmark just slightly faster. Not bad!

Hi, Jim.
What benchmark(s) are you running there?
I've got a two-holder AMD Operton 165 here running Dyalog Linux APL.

[querying in regards to the benchmark I ran which showed good performance for
Dyalog APL running under Windows XP which in turn was running under Parallels
Desktop on a Macintosh]

I'm running the "loop" test as suggested by John Scholes of Dyalog.
[0] LOOP I
[1] -> 0 < I <- I - 1
[]TS <> LOOP N <> []TS
The object is to set I so that the difference in the timestamps is one
minute. My 2.16 GHz MacBook Pro was able to do 130,000,000 loops in a minute.
John asserts that this benchmark does give a reasonable performance
comparison for different hardware.

| Bob,
I'm curious as to what results you obtained on the Loop test. I forgot to
mention that Parallels Desktop only uses one of the two processors on my
system, but that both processors will be used if two concurrent copies of
Parallels Desktop are in use. By running two concurrent copies, each of which
were running Dyalog APL, I got 100,000,000 Loops on each for a combined total
of 200,000,000 Loops.
