I can't find it at the moment, but I remember reading somewhere that the BogoMIPS values are NOT comparable between different processor families, and the P2 is a different family to the P-MMX.
As a datapoint for anybody wishing to make comparisons, my system has an AMD K6-2/350 which shows 699.60 BogoMIPS on both 2.0.36 and 2.2.5 kernels. I believe that's the correct sort of figure for the processor in question...
Best wishes from Riley.
