From: utzoo!decvax!cca!fortune!kiessig@sri-unix Newsgroups: net.micro.68k Title: UNIX onthe 68000 Article-I.D.: fortune.160 Posted: Tue Jul 20 17:07:45 1982 Received: Thu Jul 29 04:43:40 1982 I'd like to stimulate some discussion on this list about people's experiences with UNIX on the 68000. Good or bad. Performance, reliability, viability in the commercial environment, etc. Measurements on Fortune's 32:16 (runs at about 5.6MHz) seem to put it about in a league with a PDP 11/34, performance-wise. This is with a DMA 5.25" Winchester as the root/swap media. If there are some benchmarks available generally, it would be interesting to run them on a variety of 68K-based machines. Rick
