Will a Triton CPU (R5000) make this better ? :-)

For those who are not familiar with bogomips, my Pentium-100
at home does 39.94 bogomips. And the best number I've seen
for a desktop is almost 300 bogomips for an  Alpha 21064
overclocked to 300MHz. The 91.96 number for a 150MHz Indy
sounds pretty good. 

Still, I would like to know, David:
What clock factor are you using? The DEC Alphas do one
clock pre instruction, so their factor is 1, why is
the Indy at less than two-thirds of its clock rate?


Fr more details:

It would be nice to send them the new data...
