Whetstone is a benchmark test that measures the performance of a computer's floating-point arithmetic, particularly focusing on its ability to perform basic mathematical operations. It was developed in the 1970s and is used to evaluate the speed of floating-point calculations and to compare the performance of different computer systems, especially those with different architectures or configurations. The Whetstone benchmark consists of a series of floating-point calculations, including operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and square roots.
