2. Instructions per second - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instructions_per_second

   Instructions per second (IPS) is a measure of a computer's processor speed. For complex instruction set computers (CISCs), different instructions take different amounts of time, so the value measured depends on the instruction mix; even for comparing processors in the same family the IPS measurement can be problematic.

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_performance

   When it comes to high computer performance, one or more of the following factors might be involved: Short response time for a given piece of work. High throughput (rate of processing work tasks). Low utilization of computing resources. Fast (or highly compact) data compression and decompression. High availability of the computing system or ...

   For example, an IBM PC with an Intel 80486 CPU running at 50 MHz will be about twice as fast (internally only) as one with the same CPU and memory running at 25 MHz, while the same will not be true for MIPS R4000 running at the same clock rate as the two are different processors that implement different architectures and microarchitectures ...
