For what it is worth:

We just got our Solbourne upgraded to a Series 5 CPU, using the new
(33MHz?) Cypres CMOS sparc chip. 

Solbourne MP/OS 4.0B (which is SunOs 4.0.1 + a bit), standard
compiler.  Runnung full multi user, some background stuff happening.
No other CPU bound job. dhrystone.c, vers C/1.1, 12/01/84

Check this out:
	leo# cc -O -DREG=register dhrystone.c -o dryRO
	leo# ./dryRO
	Dhrystone(1.1) time for 500000 passes = 13
	This machine benchmarks at 36275 dhrystones/second

Which is better than the fastest machine listed: the IBM3090/200.

Wowzers!  I though it felt faster than my 3/80!

Greg.
