Several weeks ago I posted a comparison of the T800 against several other
machines based on the Flux Corrected Transport fluid dynamics code.  Since
then Jean Michel Favre of Tektronix has run the FCT on a single 88000.
Some results for the 2-d problem are given below (I had more numbers, but they
seem to have evaporated...)

Array size    20 MHz T800    88000
  8 x 8           25.6 s       5.1 s
 16 x 16         112.9        24.2
 32 x 32         476.4       109.3

For problems of this size, the 88k thus is about five times faster than the
T800.
