I ran the Benchmark.m timing test for Mma v 2.1,
performed in a 15MB partition on  a Macintosh II fx, 
System 7.0.1, with 21 MB virtual memory & 32 bit addressing,

You may obtain this and other Benchmark.m  results from
otter.stanford.edu.

It would be helpful if some of you who have v 2.1 on other machines could
run /ftp/mma/misc/benchmark2.0.m and send the results to me at:

xinwei at jessica.stanford.edu.


By the way, there's a more interesting comparative review by
Barry Simon in the most recent Computers & Mathematics column in the
AMS Notices (Sep 92, v 39 # 7), of Mma 2.0 for DOS & Windows, Maple V,
Derive, Reduce.
