                                  MIPS

    This test was given by Bill Joy a night on a boat sailing between
    Helsinki and Stockholm, after a violent pinball game. It consists
    in the calculus with dc of the 99th first decimals of square root
    of 2. A similar test (made by John Lions) exists  in the original
    MUSBUS. It is easy to run  (on-line benchmark) and  the user time
    is considered as significant,at a first raw approximation, of the
    CPU speed. The value of "mips" given by this test  is pretty good
    compared with marketing mips (or VAX 11/780 mips).
