Hello:
   Sorry - this isn't exactly a pvm-based question, but I suspect
that some readers of this group have considered this problem... 
and honestly, I couldnt think of another place to ask.  

I'm writing a pvm-app which will work over a heterogeneous cluster, 
and will require some initial network analysis and load-balancing.  
I need a "good idea" for benchmarking processors for relative 
performance on this cluster.  By "good-idea", I mean that I'd think 
that there's some widely-accepted/standard method of doing this, but 
I havent seen any.   Anyone hip on this thang?

Thanks VERY much -
