computer systems. It offers 18 cache and memory benchmarks for i386 and amd64
machines, though 6 only for alpha ones. There are *mark benchmarks such as
INTmark, FLOATmark, MMXmark and SSEmark. They operate with linear (sequential)
data streams passed through ALU, FPU, MMX and SSE units respectively.
There are also *mem benchmarks such as INTmem, FLOATmem, MMXmem and SSEmem.
These are supposed to illustrate how fast is actual read/write memory
performance. There are also non-temporal versions of MMX and SSE benchmarks.
They have been coded with special instructions to minimise cache pollution on
memory reads and to eliminate it completely on memory writes. In addition, they
operate with a built in aggressive data prefetching algorithm. In some cases,
non-temporal MMXmark and SSEmark can deliver almost 100% of theoretical
bandwidth while reading.

iperf is a tool for measuring the maximum TCP and UDP bandwidth along
a path between two hosts. It allows the tuning of various
parameters and UDP characteristics, and reports bandwidth, delay
jitter, datagram loss. iperf was originally developed by NLANR/DAST.
iperf3 is a new implementation from scratch, with the goal of a
smaller, simpler code base, and a library version of the functionality
that can be used in other programs. iperf3 also a number of features
found in other tools such as nuttcp and netperf, but were missing from
iperf 2.x. iperf3 is not backwards compatible with iperf 2.x.

- Move OPTIONS block down within Makefile where it is usually placed, sort
PLIST-related knobs
- Convert clumsy "cd foo && ..." to our standard, $cwd-agnostic, shorter,
and more readable constructs (and avoid needless line-wrapping)
- Update HACKAGE_SITE to follow changes in upstream
- MAKE_ENV now sets LC_ALL and DESTDIR for Haskell Cabal ports
- Further minor cosmetical changes: replace USE_GMAKE with USES, get rid of
${DO_NADA}, some refactoring

the iconv changes (basically GHCi was rendered unusable)
- Fix build for x11-toolkits/hs-wxc, while here
- Bump port revision for all Haskell Cabal ports as they have to be rebuilt

SPECsfs2008 is the latest version of the Standard Performance Evaluation
Corporation benchmark suite measuring file server throughput and response time,
providing a standardized method for comparing performance across different
vendor platforms. SPECsfs2008 results summarize the server's capabilities with
respect to the number of operations that can be handled per second, as well as
the overall latency of the operations. The suite is a follow-on to the SFS97_R1
benchmark, adding a CIFS workload, an updated NFSv3 workload, support for
additional client platforms, and a new test harness and reporting/submission
framework.
The ISO for SPECsfs2008 must be purchased from SPEC's web site, before
this port can be built.
