The integer SPECrate derived from the results of a set of integer benchmarks (the geometric mean of six {SPEC rate}s from {CINT92}) run multIPLe times simultaneously, and can be used to estimate a machine' s overall multi-tasking throughput for integer code. It is typically used on multiprocessor machines. SPECrate_int92 obsoletes SPECintThruput89. See also SPECbaserate. (1994-11-14)
