   Does anyone know how many MFLOPS the Motorola 56001 DSP and 88110
   CPU are capabale of?  I am trying to compare this to the 80 MFLOPS
   of the 33-MHx i860 and to the 50 MFLOPS of the 33-MHz 96002 DSP.

The i860 doesn't get 80 MFLOPS in practice.  10 MFLOPS is the number
that I hear a lot.  Anyway, the i860 isn't used for crunching on the
ND, it's just used for bitblits.
