The benchmark 147.vortex is taken from a full object oriented database
program called VORTEx. (VORTEx stands for "Virtual Object Runtime EXpository.")
The benchmark builds and manipulates three separate, but inter-related
databases built from definitions in a text-file schema.
The workload of VORTEx has been modeled after common object-oriented
database benchmarks with enhancements to increase the variation in the
mix of transactions.
This, along with 126.gcc, is one of the largest benchmarks in the suite.
147.vortex has shown itself to be sensitive to how well the system's
TLB handler works.
Rough estimates of some of the basic hardware level activities: CPI, I-
and D-cache activity, and TLB activity. This data is only useful for comparing
the '95 benchmarks, not for comparing against any particular hardware.
