Hey Time Testers:

Why not fill out this simple form for results of time_test2 and
graphics_times2, mail it to me, and join the IDL Speed survey. I should
have the results compiled in a few weeks, and then you can see how you
stack up....

Make : (Make of your computer)
Processor/Speed : (Processor and speed + number of processors if >1)
Memory : (Amount of RAM in Mb)
OS : (Operating System, including version)
IDL Version : (Version of IDL used)
Video Hardware : (Video Hardware, if Known)
tt2 -- mean/geom : (Mean (= total/23) and geometric mean of time_test2)
gt2 : (Mean (= total/4) and geometric mean of
graphics_times2)
tt2 -- test 23 : (Result of tt2 test 23 (Disk I/O -- see below))

A few notes: Use time_test2 on the latest version of IDL you have.
Make sure to cd to a local partition (i.e. not a network partition, /tmp
usually is safe on unix-like systems) before running the test, or your
disk i/o results will be very skewed. MAKE SURE TO INCLUDE BOTH
ARITHMETIC MEAN (=TOTAL/N) AND GEOMETRIC MEAN FOR gt2 AND tt2.
