    SubjectRe: PentiumII's.

    The Pentium II has a number of design enhancements that make it a
    better choice for multiprocessors. Here are some SPEC numbers for
    Pentium Pro and Pentium II under Linux:


    VA Research System SPEC benchmarks

    System RH Linux Kernel gcc SPECint95_base SPECfp95_base

    VArStation II 266 4.1 2.0.27 2.7.2 8.92 4.98

    VArStation II 233 4.1 2.0.27 2.7.2 7.86 4.48

    VArStation Pro
    200-512K 4.2 2.0.30 2.7.2 6.93 3.72

    VArStation Pro
    200-256K 4.2 2.0.30 2.7.2 6.68 3.36

    VA Research System SPEC Rate benchmarks

    System RH Linux Kernel # cpus SPECrateint95_base SPECratefp95_base

    VArServer 4000
    6612A 4.2 2.0.30 4 247 100

    VArStation YMP
    4621A 4.2 2.0.30 2 158 63.3


    Unfortunately, I don't have the exact numbers handy, but the dual
    processor Pentium Pro 200/512 gives a SPECrateint95 of only about 1/3
    of the dual processor Pentium II.
