[0.2] Install an armv7 glibc and re-run the benchmark using dhrystone
===[0.2] Install an armv7 glibc and re-run the benchmark using dhrystone===
 
Since optimizing the benchmark program using both architectures revealed the same results, system binaries that the program relies on come in to the picture.
 
The goal of this release is to find out if upgrading the armv5tel glibc would affect the performance of a C library dependent program such as dhrystone. By re-installing glibc using armv7 optimizations and re-running an armv7 optimized dhrystone; the result would be beneficial for Fedora-ARM, for it will help the community decide if armv5tel codes should continually be supported.
