Barton P. Miller and his colleagues tested the reliability of Unix utility programs in 1990 and 1995. Each time, GNU's utilities came out considerably ahead. They tested seven commercial Unix systems as well as GNU. By subjecting them to a random input stream, they could &ldquo;crash (with core dump) or hang (infinite loop) over 40% (in the worst case) of the basic utility programs&hellip;&rdquo;
