One other question - when you got your DN330 upgrade, did you also get
new compilers for them?  The stock SR9 compilers have some problems on the
020's - I've found bugs in the floating point department, and could easily
believe they might miss some optimisations for the DN330's.  (The easy way
to check is to try "/bin/cc kloo.c -M330" - if it doesn't work you're running
old compilers).

We got our hardware upgrades several weeks ago but had to nag the field 
office for the compiler upgrades.
