Flair,

I agree. Further, the price levels of multiprocessing for Pentium II workstations will push this form of performance enhancement on NT workstations.

Did you also notice that the planned 400MHz Pentium II workstation will have a SEC module with L2 cache running at processor speed? This is of course very important for those EDA algorithms that benefit from a large and fast secondary cache [e.g., when arrays reference pattens are such that the working set is larger than the size of the L1 cache but can be contained in the L2 cache]. Makes cycles per instruction essentially the same as Pentium Pro for such cases.

Best regards,
Arno
