Dhrystone benchmarking demo
Introduction
This example shows an application for benchmarking the FreeRTOS SMP kernel and single core FreeRTOS kernel using dhrystone benchmarking.
The application runs the the dhrystone benchmarking demo using the given number of threads and iterations and logs the results as the number of dhrystones run per second.
