megaFLOPS
megaFLOPS, abbreviated MFLOPS, stands for million floating-point operations per second. It is a unit of computer performance used to quantify the rate at which a processor can carry out floating-point arithmetic, typically counting operations such as additions, multiplications, and other floating-point calculations.
In practice, MFLOPS can refer to different floating-point precisions, often single- or double-precision, and conventions may
MFLOPS is a legacy metric that was widely used during the early era of digital computers and
Measuring MFLOPS typically involves running a benchmark that executes a known total number of floating-point operations
