HP VISUALIZE C3000 (9000/785/C3000)

A mid-range Unix workstation released in 1999, based on HP's indigenous PA-8500 microprocessor with 1 MiB of on-die data cache, 512 KiB of on-die instruction cache and a clock frequency of 400 MHz. All tests are performed under HP-UX 11.11 (11i v1) on a system not specifically configured for benchmarking.
