Interesting PChallenge results with 'stream_d.f'

Dear Dr. McCalpin,

I have followed your advice and have received the results
attached to this message. 'myclock.c' is causing problems
already at the compilation step ('main' missing, as far as
I remember), so I took your new 'stream_d.f' (which I had
to check by 'differences' against the version that I have
used so far in order to be able to tell the difference, since
you have not put any update information into the description
at the beginning of the file!).

Our PChallenge is supposed to have maximum 10 processors;
currently it is run under test conditions at user's own risk,
and I have been told the occurrence of numerous hardware
(processor) failures. I thought at present only 7 processors are
alive, but the result looks more like 10 processors in good
shape. Or is the timing calibration interval too short? Or
should I rely more on the wall clock, although I shall never have
an empty machine? Anyhow, the user load is very low as you can
see from the 'who'.

The software used you can tell from the list at the very end.

I am very curious about your comments.

Best regards,

Wolf Weyrich.
