Hi All,
I want to measure MIPS(Million Instruction per second, i.e. instruction count per second) on ARMv7 Platforms. What is the procedure for calculating MIPS for ARMv7 platforms?
Thanks and Regards

Hi,
to fulfill your intention any sort of benchmarks would be useless.You had better measure the execution time by using the built-in performance counter.

Do you have information which counter should be used to get the instruction count information?
If you see, ARM IDE, after running the code, we get analysis report. Basically it contains, Instructions, Average Instructions per Second, Cycles etc.
I want to calculate Cycles using some sub routines. Can you suggest which is the counter used to calculate that cycle information?
thanks and Regards
I think your expectations will be only realized when you will use ICE.Almost ARM IDE would not have such flexible features.Regarding Performance Monitoring Unit, I cannot believe other than the cycle counter.
