"Out of date benchmark - 32 bit only"
Version: dhrystone Benchmark 1.0
Pros
Easy to use.
Cons
All Macs with Intel CPUs are 64-bit. Anyone using OS/X 10.6 is 100% 64-bit. Dhrystone 1.0 is a 32-bit only benchmark. Anyone using this will get a 32-bit Drystone 1.0 result number that is roughly 2x the size of 64-bit Dhrystone 2.1 numbers.
Summary
This is useful only if you want to compare your modern Mac with one from about 5 years or more ago.
We need Dhrystone 2.1 (64 bit Dhrystone) for Mac.
