Unfortunately, I wasn't able to catch either COMPCON, or Dave's later
CRISP talk at Stanford, but I do believe that was X a 750, not a 780
[BTL-Research usually compares that way since they have 750s!].  From
reports of the Stanford talk, I also heard (maybe somebody else can confirm):
	13X	(750) Dhrystone	(11,000? hard to know what their 750s do?)
	20X	wc
	30X	Ackerman's function
