I have just completed an additional test for DHRYSTONE 1.1 for ProDOS 8 written in Aztec C65 3.2b with my real Apple //e with an 8 MHZ Zip Chip Accelerator: 206 DHRYSTONES/second. - By comparison to DHRY of 197 for 8086-8Mhz RMX86 V6 Intel C-86 V2.0. - By comparison to DHRY of 259 for IBM PC/XT 8088-4.77Mhz COHERENT 2.3.43 Mark Williams. While a Macintosh512 68000-7.7Mhz Mac ROM O/S DeSmet(C ware) has a DHRY of 625 (about triple the speed), Aztec C65's performance on my Apple //e still doesn't seem too shabby for my little old 8 bit machine. But thinking that hardware optimization may still be a little too slow for some tasks, and virtual optimization might then be in order, I also tested under AppleWin using the fastest custom speed settings on my 2.6 GHZ Intel G620 and the DHRY is 4166 (which is probably fast enough for anything that might need doing with this old compiler). Regards, Bill PS - Sorry if all of this this stretches credibility, but I couldn't resist doing these last tests just for fun. And for the record, I never did own an Apple //e without an acceleretor.
