In article Dan Pop <Dan.Pop@mail.cern.ch> cited this machine > >SNI/Pyr PC/E5S Pentium 30/90 256+8/8 86.3 72.7 Jul94 c.bmarks and wrote that it takes a 604 to show a marginal edge over the Pentium. Here is the set of numbers for 601s that I found, Enjoy ! [Here's how the argument has gone so far : 1. Dan Pop claims that Pentium 66 beats 601/66, pulls a couple of examples from the specmark table to "prove" that. 2. Since there are more specmarks than his examples, he then pulls out the Pentium 90, and digresses on price. He also claims that only a 604 beats that. 3. To be observed (I think its now going to be price). ] -arun gupta [ taken from comp.benchmarks, From: jdd@cdf.toronto.edu (John DiMarco) Subject: SPECmark table ] ******** TABLE 3: SPECint92, SPECFP92 ******** [much truncated] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ System CPU ClkMHz Cache SPECint SPECfp Info Source Name (NUMx)Type ext/in Ext+I/D 92 92 Date Obtained =============== ========== ======= ========== ======= ======= ===== ========== IBM N40 MPC601 50 32 41.7 51.0 Mar95 www.ibm IBM 250 MPC601 66 32 62.6 72.2 Jul94 www.ibm IBM 250 MPC601 80 32 77.6 89.4 Jul94 www.ibm IBM 25T MPC601 66 32 62.6 78.8 Mar95 www.ibm IBM 25T MPC601 80 32 72.2 90.4 Mar95 www.ibm IBM C10 MPC601 80 32 78.8 90.4 Jul94 www.ibm IBM C10 MPC601 80 1M+32 90.5 100.8 Jul94 www.ibm IBM 40P MPC601 66 32 63.7 67.8 Mar95 www.ibm IBM 40P MPC601 66 256+32 75.1 77.0 Mar95 www.ibm IBM 41[T|W] MPC601 80 512+32 88.1 98.7 Jul94 www.ibm IBM 41[T|W] MPC601 80 32 78.8 90.4 Jul94 www.ibm ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
