SPEC rate
<benchmark> Results of the throughput measurement using SPEC benchmark
suites CINT92 and CFP92. With the throughput measurement method, several copies
of a given benchmark are executed. The method is particularly suitable for
multiprocessor systems.
The results, called SPEC rate, express how many jobs of a particular type
(characterised by the individual benchmark) can be executed in a given time (The
SPEC reference time happens to be a week, the execution times are normalized
with respect to a VAX 11/780). The SPEC rates therefore characterise the
capacity of a system for compute-intensive jobs of similar characteristics.
See also SPEC ratio.
