Single CPU server benchmarks johan Saturday, October 16, 1999 (06:20 PM West-Europa (zomertijd))

A few days ago, I came across a very good processor test done by PC Professionell , the German Ziff Davies magazine. They tested several CPU's on their server capabilities. And the results were quite astonishing: 

CPU           ZD serverbench 4.1    ZD Netbench 6.0
============  ==================    ===============
Athlon 600      41.9                  64.18
Athlon 550      38.7                  61.8
K6-III 500      35.1                  54.1
XEON 500        32.5                  50.1
PIII 550        32.3                  43
Celeron 500     22.5                  33.2

Now, the K6-III might not be an option for big companies, but small companies should really consider this"forgotten processor" for a small single CPU server. The K6-III slaps its brother the Athlon and the Intel CPU's silly on clock for clock and bang for buck basis ! Note that the K6-III had 2 MB L2-cache [L3?]. Internet and server applications seem to like the Tri-level cache structure of the K6-III.
