LAT_OPS(8)                          LMBENCH                         LAT_OPS(8)

NAME
       lat_ops - basic CPU operation parallelism

SYNOPSIS
       lat_ops [ -W <warmups> ] [ -N <repetitions> ]

DESCRIPTION
       lat_ops measures the latency of basic CPU operations, such as integer
       ADD.

       integer bit, add, mul, div, mod operations
              maximum parallelism for integer XOR, ADD, MUL, DIV, MOD
              operations.

       uint64 bit, add, mul, div, mod operations
              maximum parallelism for uint64 XOR, ADD, MUL, DIV, MOD
              operations.

       float add, mul, div operations
              maximum parallelism for flot ADD, MUL, DIV operations.

       double add, mul, div operations
              maximum parallelism for flot ADD, MUL, DIV operations.

BUGS
       This benchmark is highly experimental and may sometimes (frequently?)
       give erroneous results.
