Where did the reference times go?
I was reading an HTML (or PDF or PS) report and see that in the table SPEC now prints all three observations as both seconds and ratio, with the bold underlined item for the median. Although this is useful, CPU2000 results reports included the reference times in their own column, and I miss them. Yes, I understand that the ratio is defined as reference time / observed time, so I could calculate the reference times by simple multiplication. Nevertheless, it was nice having them handy in the previous report format. a. They are still fairly easy to locate. The text format still prints them on every line (just like CPU2000), so if you go up to the top of your browser and change the .pdf (or .whichever) to .txt, you’ll find the reference times.
