Yah, besides missing compiler flags, how does it perform on different intel processors, how about different AMDs?
Plus, the huge system times seems to indicate this more a kernel test than a compiler one.
Sorry, AC, I will have to let go my positive mod point to you so I can reinforce what you've said. Next time, please consider making an account so you can escape the Score: 0 limbo when you post on Slashdot
Since Intel has been caught red-handed crippling AMD processors on code produced by Intel C++ Compiler, I think that testing on Intel and AMD processors should the duty of every single compiler benchmark -- that is posted in Slashdot, at least.
No, it's not the journals' problem. It's a funding problem.
Nobody wants to pay for scientists to reproduce and verify each others' work.
It is both: a funding problem AND the journals' problem. They are not contradictory (far from it, actually).
I've noticed several design suggestions in your code.
