:Mindcraft: Open Benchmark Invitation
Mindcraft: Open Benchmark Invitation
May 4, 1999, 23 :52 UTC (31 Talkback[s]) (1835 reads)

(Other stories by Bruce Weiner)

"Mindcraft believes that the best way to continue to show our name as a credible source of information is to have an Open Benchmark. Therefore, we welcome the opportunity to perform a benchmark of Linux and Windows NT Server that is open to the best experts in the Linux community. Mindcraft will participate in this benchmark at its own expense.

"Mindcraft has withheld the publication of our second Linux and Windows NT Server benchmark results (the test for which Linus and others provided some suggestions for tuning) pending the response to this Open Benchmark invitation."

Complete story.
