I found the recent article in the August/September issue of Circuit Cellar Ink
about DSPs vs. RISC very interesting.  In it the i860 is benchmarked as being
the fastest at 96-tap FIR filtering.  It was compared against the Am29050, the
C30, the 56001, the 96000, and a few others.  But that's as far as the article
went -- it did not compare performance for doing FFTs.

Does anyone have any information about how fast the i860 can do an FFT, either
theoretical or measured?  I'm especially interested in how it compares against
the C30, the 96000 and the 56001.  Because since there don't seem to be any 386
or 486 motherboards out there with DSPs on them, the one from Happauge with the
i860 on it might be worth a look.
