Thanks for testing !!! Hmmm, Signetics CPU isn't much inferior like it's told... AND that 0.06MHz difference in clock in PAL vs. NTSC systems doesn't seem to change anything...

You're not really testing a lot of instructions in your code. Try writing a benchmark for the DIV instruction, for example.

Maybe later, this code is just for detecting overclocked systems (my current project will be written overclocking in mind) and I needed to see how well different CPUs perform with that piece of code. I would be interesting to see the results of OCd systems.

i rewrote your benchmark utility for the Sega CD, and when i tried to compile it, i got these errors (as I figured i would)

Code: Select all

 INCLUDE "TMEGALIB/SEGASEQ.ASM"
spdtest.asm(75) : Error 22017 : Cannot find file 'TMEGALIB/SEGASEQ.ASM'
 INCLUDE "CA\ASCII701.TGS"
spdtest.asm(252) : Error 22017 : Cannot find file 'CA\ASCII701.TGS'
do still have those files?

SEGASEQ.ASM contains TMSS satisfaction routine (write "SEGA" to a reg if not version 0) and ASCII701.TGS is 7-bit(128 characters) ASCII table.

I'll send you these files if you want...

i'll only need the ASCII one then, as it's running from a Sega CD, that "SEGA" register won't work as the sega CD BIOS did the booting...

but, just incase i want to compile it for the genesis again, with some modifications, yea, i guess you can throw in the the TMSS routine if you want.. thanks..
