The benchmarking activities carried out by ESTEC as a means of comparing several compiler/processor pairs for use in spacecraft are presented. An overview of the application area is presented. The benchmarking results are presented and discussed. Conclusions concerning the Ada compiler and processor selections are derived. Some ideas for further work are discussed. It is concluded that the performance that an application can demand from a processor depends very much on fine tuning by the programmer.
