   <benchmark> A {benchmark} result derived from the results of a
   set of {floating-point} benchmarks (the {geometric mean} of 14
   {SPEC rates} from {CFP92}) run multiple times simultaneously,

   {multi-tasking} throughput for {floating-point} code.  It is
   typically used on {multiprocessor} machines.
