Paul,

Intel's internal testing has shown that a 533 MHz Coppermine outperforms a 600 MHz Pentium /// with off-chip 512K 1/2 speed cache.

I wonder what benchmark they are using. The numbers I calculated were for Winstone. If Intel chose a benchmark which fits nicely in a 256K L2, then they will be able to feel happy about Coppermine's L2. Obviously, larger benchmarks will not make Coppermine look so good.

Are there other architectural enhancements in Coppermine?
