hi,
Is there a gfortran preferred or standard performance benchmark

gfortran is regularly tested with the Polyhedron benchmark suite
<http://polyhedron.com/polyhedron_benchmark_suite0html> and with
the SPEC fp benchmark suites <http://www.spec.org/>.
Are you planning to do tests in unusual environments? Please let
us know your results.
Systems are not that unusual (PPC64/Quad - PPC/Dual - Core Duo).
I've been working on a patch to implement the static linking of the
fortran lib on darwin (which is complete, bar testing in a wider
variety of situations).
In principle, the static linked lib should (potentially) be slightly
higher performance - I was interested to know if there was a formal
way to test this.
thanks for the links,
Iain
