I need a performance comparison of COBOL, C and HLASM in terms of MIPs consumed by a small program, say, a program to add 2 numbers. Can anyone help me out in this regard?



PS: Have posted the same query in the COBOL forum too since i couldn't classify it.

Hello,

If you write these 3 small programs to add 2 numbers and they are all using "good" number field definitons (i.e. the same size packed-decimal), the difference in cpu used will be almost impossible to see.
