NAME

       mhz - calulate processor clock rate

SYNOPSIS

       mhz [-c]

DESCRIPTION

       mhz  calculates the processor clock rate and megahertz.  It uses an unrolled, interlocked loop of adds or
       shifts.  So far, superscalarness has been defeated on the tested processors (SuperSPARC, RIOS, Alpha).

OUTPUT

       Output format is either just the clock rate as a float (-c) or more verbose

       39.80 Mhz, 25 nanosec clock

       mhz is described more completely in ``mhz: Anatomy of a microbenchmark'' in Proceedings  of  1998  USENIX
       Annual Technical Conference , June 1998.
