Jim,

If cycles refers to the number of cycles to complete the given number of instructions, it looks like the Coppermine kicks the K7's butt in the uncompress and expresso benchmarks, is about even in the fft, and the K7 rules on the alternative. If the K7 can't complete an fft in fewer cycles than a Coppermine (when the K7 is supposed to be far superior in double precision floating point), the K7 is in big trouble. But then again, I'm not really sure how to interpret the numbers you posted.

Pravin.
