+The BYTE benchmark suite tests several aspects of system performance.
+
+An article, which describes the concepts and helps understand the results 
+can be found in the doc directory (/usr/local/lib/bytebench/doc if you use 
+a PREFIX of /usr/local).
+
+This benchmark is quite prominent among Linux users, and there is a patched 
+version available from some web suite, from where results are made available, 
+too.
+
+Since they offer some results of non-Linux systems for comparison, they might 
+be interested in FreeBSD reports, too ;-)
+
+
+Quoting from "README.submittal" of the Linux version of this benchmark suite:
+
+% Please e-mail test results along with platform info to:

+% 
+% Included CPU info, speed, RAM, and host adapter and bus
+% info as well as any special compilation flags.
