Test: Graphics performance test Wayne McClelland
WAMware Ltd. Submitted:
26-Mar-99

Modules Tested : Master Assembly

This test is aimed at dynamic viewing performance (both line and shaded modes). There is some overhead in parsing the program file, but the test results should be reasonably indicative of live dynamic viewing performance.

You can also Download the current status of all the Benchmark Results as a Microsoft Access Database (for your own sorting, filtering, and manipulation -- approx. 500KB -- requires Access 2000 or higher)
