Hi, For those that haven't seen it. There is a new release of the DaCapo Benchmark Suite and a paper describing perfromance evaluation and benchmarking methodologies. The suite itself is a collection of real world, free software programs and datasets. http://www.dacapobench.org/ Cheers, Mark

The DaCapo research group is pleased to announce a new beta release of the DaCapo benchmark suite, an accompanying set of performance evaluation methodologies for dynamically compiled languages [Blackburn et al., OOPSLA 2006], and mailing lists for community participation and feedback. All are available at http://www.dacapobench.org. The DaCapo benchmark suite is a set of 11 non-trivial, real-world, open source Java benchmarks. This release contains numerous substantial improvements over earlier beta releases of the suite, including new, larger benchmarks and a greatly improved harness. We encourage researchers and developers from industry and academia working with Java to use the DaCapo suite and apply the methodologies presented in the accompanying paper (http://www.dacapobench.org/dacapo-oopsla-2006.pdf). The paper recommends performance evaluation and benchmarking methodologies for dynamically compiled languages, describes and analyzes the suite, and critiques the current state of measurement methodology in the field. The web site also contains a link to a companion 30-page technical report which includes comparative data for SPEC benchmarks. The suite and paper represent the culmination of five years of work from around twenty individuals across eight institutions. We anticipate that this will be the final beta release. Enjoy!
