Benchmarks
for Emu42 on Pocket PC 2002 / 2003 Tuesday 29th of June 2004 By courtesy of Christoph Giesselink here are some benchmarks for Emu42 on the Pocket PC 2002 and 2003. The benchmark measures the running time for the Miller-Rabin primality test for the number 999 999 999 961. This makes it easy to compare the running speeds on the Pocket PC vs the real HP-42S. Already on a StrongARM 206MHz-based Pocket PC (e.g. the HP Jornada 560 series) does it run at more than 5.5 times the speed of the real HP-42S. On a XScale 400MHz-based Pocket PC it performs impressingly at 11.6 times the speed of the real calc - making it the fastest environment running HP-42S programs that fits in your pocket! Please also note that although the program is officially called "Emu 42 for Pocket PC 2002" it has now also been tested successfully on Pocket PC 2003!
