-// This test program illustrates the performance difference between
-// $Id$
-
-// three versions of wrappers for thread mutexes. These three
-// versions exercise various combinations of the following classes:
-//
-// Thread_Mutex --
-// This version is just like ACE_Thread_Mutex, which doesn't use
-// inheritance and dynamic binding.
-//
-// Mutex_Base --
-// This is an abstract base class that defines the
-// acquire()/release() interface.
-//
-// Thread_Mutex_Derived --
-// This derived from Mutex_Base and uses inheritance and
-// dynamic binding.
-//
-// The following are the results I got when running this on our
-// SPARCstation 20 model 712:
-//
-// ./test_mutex 1000000
-// iterations = 1000000
-// Thread_Mutex
-// real time = 1.727843 secs, user time = 1.729262 secs, system time = 0.000325 secs
-// time per call = 1.747843 usecs
-// Thread_Mutex_Derived
-// real time = 1.730225 secs, user time = 1.724744 secs, system time = 0.000096 secs
-// time per call = 1.730225 usecs
-// Mutex_Base
-// real time = 2.112831 secs, user time = 2.104245 secs, system time = 0.000095 secs
-// time per call = 2.112831 usecs
-//
-// My conclusions are as follows:
-//
-// 1. If your C++ compiler optimizes calls to virtual functions that
-// are made through instances of derived classes, then the
-// performance of the Thread_Mutex and Thread_Mutex_Derived are
-// essentially identical.
-//
-// 2. The overhead from using virtual functions is approximately
-// 20%. Naturally, as the amount of contention goes up, the
-// relative overhead of the virtual function calls will decrease.
-//
-// Keep in mind, however, that using virtual functions to implement
-// the Thread_Mutex will make it infeasible to put instances of
-// Thread_Mutex into shared memory since the vptrs won't point to the
-// correct vtables...
