I've recently re-written the tool, and have released it under the GPL
with a new name, ssibench (pronounced psi-bench), to indicate that the
tool can be used for benchmarking openMosix, mosix and openssi
(possibly other ssi implementations too). the tool can be found at
http://www.xyz-network.com/ssibench .

Also, developers, the benchmark is extensible now, so instead of just
running through my own rudimentary calculations, a much more advanced
test can be devised as a plugin to the ssibench "framework". all that
needs to be done, is to create a perl module following the
zz_ssibench_default.pm plugin's lead. plugins go in the ./plugin
directory and use the namespace "plugin::<filename minus .pm>"
