Hi there,

Paying customer here. There is no commercially available, precompiled benchmarking suite for 64-bit Linux on PowerPC at present. Are you aware of any alternatives suites I might be able to consider using? IBM has doubled down on POWER as of late (specifically in the context of licensing it, and in the context of low-end Linux) Freescale is actively making dual and quad-core PowerPC parts. All of these parts implement the POWER ISA 2.06+ as documented at https://www.power.org/documentation/power-isa-version-2-06-revision-b

    Thank you for your message. I'm not aware of any pre-compiled benchmark suites that are available for 64-bit Linux on PowerPC.

    Let me know if you have any other questions and I'd be happy to help out.

    Best,
    John
