Editor to share with you what is measured by mips computer performance indicators, I hope you will learn a lot after reading this article, let's discuss it together!

The computer performance index measured by mips is operation speed. The English full name of mips is "Million Instructions Per Second", which indicates the average execution speed of single-word long fixed-point instructions and the number of millions of machine language instructions processed per second, which is an index to measure the speed of CPU.

The computer performance index measured by mips is operation speed. MIPS is an index to measure the speed of computer operation.

MIPS (Million Instructions Per Second): abbreviation for average execution speed of single-word long fixed-point instructions Million Instructions Per Second, millions of machine language instructions processed per second. This is an indicator of the speed of CPU. For example, an Intel80386 computer can process 3 to 5 million machine language instructions per second, that is, we can say that 80386 is 3 to 5MIPS CPU. MIPS is only a measure of CPU performance.

Related introduction:

MIPS is a popular RISC processor in the world. MIPS means "pipelined microprocessor without internal interlock" (Microprocessor without interlocked piped stages), and its mechanism is to avoid data-related problems in the pipeline by using software as far as possible. It was first developed in the early 1980s by a research team led by Professor Hennessy of Stanford University. The R series of MIPS Company is the microprocessor of RISC industrial products developed on this basis. These series of products are used by many computer companies to form a variety of workstations and computer systems.

MIPS Technology is a famous chip design company in the United States, which uses reduced instruction system Computing Architecture (RISC) to design chips. Compared with the complex instruction system Computing Architecture (CISC) adopted by Intel, RISC has the advantages of simpler design and shorter design cycle, and can apply more advanced technologies to develop faster next-generation processors. MIPS is one of the earliest commercial RISC architecture chips. The new architecture integrates all the original MIPS instruction sets and adds many more powerful functions.

MIPS processor is a hot spot of RISC CPU design in the mid-1980s. MIPS is the best-selling RISC CPU, and you can see MIPS products on sale from anywhere, such as Sony, Nintendo game consoles, Cisco routers and SGI supercomputers. With the RISC architecture competing with x86 chips, MIPS is likely to be the only one of the original RISC CPU designs that has made a profit in this century. Compared with Intel, the licensing fee of MIPS is relatively low, which is adopted by most chip manufacturers except Intel.

The system structure and design concept of MIPS are relatively advanced. Its instruction system has passed through the general processor instruction system MIPS I, MIPS II, MIPS III, MIPS IV to MIPS V, and the development of embedded instruction system MIPS16, MIPS32 to MIPS64 has been very mature. In the design concept, MIPS emphasizes the cooperation of hardware and software to improve performance and simplify hardware design.

China Godson 2 and the previous generation of products use 64-bit MIPS instruction architecture, which is incompatible with the commonly known X86 instruction architecture. MIPS instruction architecture is created by MIPS and belongs to the RISC system. In the past, MIPS architecture products were mostly found in workstations, and the "Emotion Engine" used in Sony's PS2 game consoles also used MIPS instructions. These MIPS processors are very powerful, and Godson 2 belongs to this camp and is fully compatible with these products in terms of software.
