Hi I put a set of benchmark figures accumulated from this list. http://www.hashcash.org/benchmark/ If I missed your machine -- fire me an email with the info or reply here. To benchmark "hashcash -sv" (this is now the same as fastmint_benchtest). I wonder if hashcash would compile in cygwin. Can the cygwin binaries be made static and runable without cygwin system installed? Anyone know and have cygwin installed? Adam
