These are four small benchmarks, in Forth, in C, and in C generated by our prototype Forth-to-C-Translator. Typing make in a directory runs the benchmarks. You can find a more detailed description of the benchmarks and a collection of results at http://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/forth/performance.html. You can find new versions of this collection at http://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/forth/bench.tar.gz.
