[1] More recently Ludovic Drolez prepared an NBench App for the Android mobile device operating system.
First, a calibration loop is run to determine the size of the problem the system can handle in a reasonable time, in order to adapt to the ever-faster computer hardware available.
The index figures where relative scores to get a general feel for the performance of the machine under test as compared to a baseline system based on a 90 MHz Pentium Intel CPU.
The Linux/Unix port has a second baseline machine, it is an AMD K6/233 with 32 MB RAM and 512 KB L2-cache running Linux 2.0.32 and using GNU gcc version 2.7.2.3 and libc-5.4.38.
A results page from runs on many different hardware configurations, from high-powered multi-CPU servers down to low-powered network switches, is maintained by the original porter.
