Geode Performance

Pete, you might find this interesting:

haveland.com

The Geode @ 500MHz takes 3:47 to render a scene.

A 3.0GHz Pentium 4 takes 0:30 to render the same scene. If you normalized the clocks, it means the Pentium 4 would take 3:00 to render the scene, and that's if the scaling were linear. Most likely, it would take <3:00 for Pentium 4 to render the scene @ 500MHz.

That means Geode is clock for clock slower than Pentium 4. But it only runs at 500MHz.

No wonder you're so proud, Pete! :-)

LOL, Pete! LOL....
