Mt. Franklin et al., COMMERCIAL WORKLOAD PERFORMANCE IN THE IBM POWER2 RISC SYSTEM 6000 PROCESSOR/, IBM journal of research and development, 38(5), 1994, pp. 555-561
We describe features of the POWER2(TM) processor and memory subsystem
that enhance RISC System/6000(R) performance on commercial workloads.
We explain the performance characteristics of commercial workloads and
some of the common benchmarks used to measure them. Our own analysis
methods are also described.
