详细描述了三个最常用的基准测试，并警告用户注意一些陷阱。其中两个，Whetstone 和 Drystone，是综合基准测试：它们仅为基准测试目的而编写，不执行任何有用的计算。 Linpack 是从一个真实的、有目的的程序中提炼出来的，该程序现在被用作基准。简要考虑了其他一些基准，即 Livermore Fortran Kernels、Stanford Small Programs Benchmark Set、EDN 基准、Sieve of Eratosthenes、Rhealstone 和 SPEC 基准。讨论了基准性能中的非 CPU 影响。<<ETX>>
The three most often used benchmarks are characterized in detail and users are warned about a number of pitfalls. Two of them, Whetstone and Drystone, are synthetic benchmarks: they were written solely for benchmarking purposes and perform no useful computation. Linpack was distilled out of a real, purposeful program that is now used as a benchmark. Some other benchmarks, namely Livermore Fortran Kernels, Stanford Small Programs Benchmark Set, EDN benchmarks, Sieve of Eratosthenes, Rhealstone and SPEC benchmarks, are briefly considered. Non-CPU influences in benchmark performance are discussed.<<ETX>>
