xdlutime results

[Horatio B. Bogbindero]

i need help in interpreting my xdlutime results in a 8-node beowulf
cluster connected via 100mbps fast ethernet (intel 410T and
inteleepro100s).

here are the results:
--------------------

Simple Timer for ScaLAPACK routine PDGESV
Number of processors used:   8

TIME     N  NB   P   Q  LU Time   Sol Time  MFLOP/S Residual  CHECK
---- ----- --- --- --- --------- --------- -------- -------- -------
WALL  2828  64   2   2     42.70      0.35   350.49 0.005429 PASSED
WALL  2828  64   2   2     42.69      0.35   350.60 0.005429 PASSED
