I'm including the Borland 4.02 makefile and config.h 23 at the end of this message. 24 25 When you're ready for release, I'll be happy to take care of getting 26 the appropriate archive files up to Simtel if you wish. 27 28 I have not used this version for any of my "work-related" scanners 29 yet, but have run the fastwc benchmark. The compiles were for large 30 memory model and optimization for fastest possible code. The test 31 machine was a Pentium-90 (hey! timing output was integer!) with 32 enhanced IDE on a PCI bus and no file system caching. I ran the 33 test on two different input files. 34 35 (Times are in seconds.) 36 37 The first input was a typical postscript file concatenated 10 times; 38 by typical, I mean that there were relatively few spaces, lots of lines 39 with no space, using lots of parentheses. 40 41 lines words characters 42 91200 356260 5889240 43 44 mywc 8.89 45 wc1s 15.22 default 46 wc1 10.82 -Cf 47 wc2 10.16 -Cf 48 wc3 9.17 -Cf 49 wc4 9.22 -Cf 50 wc5 10.98 -Cf 51 52 The second test run was on a file that consisted of 20 concatenations 53 of 'misc/flex.man'. 54 55 lines words characters 56 69960 305140 2399960 57 58 mywc 4.01 59 wc1s 6.87 60 wc1 5.32 61 wc2 4.95 62 wc3 4.12 63 wc4 4.12 64 wc5 5.05 65 66 [[Makefile and config.h moved to separate files -VP]] 67
