What is Speedometer?
Speedometer is a shareware application that we have included with Executor for demonstrational purposes. We have done so with permission of Speedometer’s author, Scott Berfield. It benchmarks Macintoshes (and PCs running Executor) to find out how quickly their CPU, graphics, floating point and disk subsystems work. The current version of Speedometer is Speedometer 4.x, but that uses a timing mechanism that Executor currently doesn’t support. Speedometer 3.23 can give you a rough approximation of how quickly your PC is emulating a Mac. Remember, Speedometer is shareware, and ARDI has not paid the shareware fee for you. If you repeatedly use Speedometer, please register it with Scott. Speedometer will show you that Executor is a very efficient emulator. Please note, ARDI has not put special hooks into Executor to recognize Speedometer’s code and bypass it; Speedometer is treated just like any other application when run under Executor. Yes, it would be possible for us to cheat and make Sp
