  • the clock rate is measured in Hz or cycles per second (CPS), but this can be very misleading especially on modern multi-core, superscalar, pipelined CPUs (it is possible for a well optimized implementation running on a slower clock to actually be much faster than a slightly less optimal implementation running on a much faster clock)
  • the instruction execution speed is measured in IPS or OPS
  • floating point execution speed is measured in FLOPS
  • there are thousands of other units that are used by various benchmarking programs that attempt to make more "real world" estimates of the speed of computers
