This article provides information about the real measured speeds of the CPC's hardware using different software. The abbreviaton "n.f." means "not feasible", since some software is not capable of performing a particular task. Numbers in bold indicate the smallest needed time. All experiments have been repeated 10 times, the statistic mean of the 10 experiments is given. Time is measured in seconds.
On CPC emulators the times can vary, for this tests only real CPCs had been used. For this tests the Dobbertin HD20 hard disc has had been used.
The used PC had a AMD Duron CPU running at 900 MHz. It's OS was Windows2000. Instead of Vortex format 720K DOS format has been used.
