There was some interest in lmbench numbers for the K6. Here are numbers for some landmark kernels (this way this posting is at least on topic). Draw your own conclusions.
The hardware: CPU : 200 MHz AMD K6 RAM : 64 MB RAM HD : Quantum Bigfoot 2550A CD : Toshiba XM-5702B Chipset: Intel Triton II Cache : 512KB
