Hi all,
I am working with a couple researchers at North Carolina State
University looking at the TLB behavior. Past studies in this area have
used statically linked programs like SPEC CPU to provide workload for
the simulator. This is very different than the typical shared-library,
GUI application available on the desktop. We would like to have a
sampling of workload programs that are more like the typical programs
that people use on desktop machines. The characteristics we are
looking for in the examples are:
-represent commonly-performed tasks, e.g. edit file and view document
-depend on a number of dynamically-linked libraries
-use GUI
-have built-in accessibility features needed to automate the
experiment with dogtail
-run for a couple seconds, so instrumented version doesn't take too long
-doesn't require network access
Currently, we have some example workloads using gthumb, evince, and
abiword. They are driven by dogtail. We are looking for some
additional examples to round out the experiments. Some GUI tests might
be suitable for this, but would like to have examples that are more
like normal person might use the software rather than a minimal test
cases.

my colleagues are very fond of nedit
