Tench,

<Merced performance>

Actually, it will most likely be doing quite well for
a 1999 part. I suspect it will come in around 40 on
integer and 70-80 on floating point. There really
wasn't much confusion on PA binaries. They run at 90%
of the speed of PA 8500.. i.e. 31 SpecInt95 .. no mention
of MHz, etc. I would think they took everything into
account. Doubt a 440 MHz Merced could run PA binaries at
31 Specint.
