    Have an IBM PC compatible on the 486 or the first Pentium? Please run it for me!

    Thank you very much for your results. I have just published them - http://litwr2.atspace.eu/pi/pi-spigot-benchmark.html - I didn't publish a screenshot because all screenshots (but for the PI-IBMPC) have strange marks on them. These marks contain the "copy text from image" button, the share...

    Have an IBM PC compatible on the 486 or the first Pentium? Please run it for me!

    It should work even with the first DOS but newer versions are ok too. I can provide a version for DOS compatible computers which don't have standard BIOS but it is rather redundant for the 486/Pentium machines.

    Have an IBM PC compatible on the 486 or the first Pentium? Please run it for me!

    I have written small programs which may be used as a benchmark. It is a number pi calculator that can give us any digits of the pi. It also outputs the amount of time spent on each calculation. I am gathering timings for 100, 1000, and 3000 digits. I have found out that emulators are rather...

    Have a Macintosh-68k? Please run this for me!

    Sorry, I have never written any FPU code. :( I can only suggest a Mandelbrot set generator. However I don't actually know any specific program. :(

    Thank you for one more bug report. It is fixed, the screenshot function should work now.

    I will be happy with any but as a maximum it's the best to get a shot from every piece of your hardware (SE+020, IIsi, QQ650). For 1000 or 3000. Thank you in advance.

    @speakers The results for the Quadra 650 are fantastic for me. The 68040 shows unbelievable speed that surpasses the 80486! It would be great if you can get results for your SE without the accelerator card. But thank you anyway. EDIT. It would also be great to get a screenshot. BTW I couldn't...

    Have a Macintosh-68k? Please run this for me!

    Thank you very much. However it was not an OS issue, it was my miss. Sorry. I only tested the previous version with 7.5.5 and 7.0.1 and this did not allow me to detect my bug. :( Now the bug is fixed. This bug just corrupted the number printed and didn't affect computations.

    Have a Macintosh-68k? Please run this for me!

    Thank you very much for your information. It has confirmed other results that the 68020 optimization has no effect for the 68030. This is odd for me, theoretically this optimization should be useful for the 68030 too. Thank you very much for your bug report. I successfully tested my code with...

    Have a Macintosh-68k? Please run this for me!

    Thank you very much. Is your accelerator board for the SE the Radius Accelerator SE? The results for Pi20 will also be valuable to me... Did you have issues with the output to the screen?

    My code uses only integers.

    Have a Macintosh-68k? Please run this for me!

    Thanks. Do you use CPU overclocking and faster RAM?

    Have a Macintosh-68k? Please run this for me!

    The timing is the last number printed. So the results for Pi20 on the IIfx are 100 - 0.5 1000 - 1.62 3000 - 11.80 You can check these numbers with a stopwatch too. It is also interesting to get results for the Pi program that is optimized for the 68000. I am curious how faster is the program...

    Have a Macintosh-68k? Please run this for me!

    Thank you very much. It is unexpected for me that the first left digits are slightly cut on your photos. Emulators show the correct picture. It seems real iron has some peculiarities which I missed in my code. :( I have attached a screenshot from the MAME/MESS emulator of the Mac II - there...

    I have written my first assembly program for the old good Mac. It is a number pi calculator that can give us any number of digits of the pi. It also outputs the amount of time spent on each calculation. I am gathering timings for 100, 1000, and 3000 digits for the 68k system (up to the 68040)...
