Paul Engel:

I agree with everything you said about the Cyrix chip. What I have proved to Yousef is that the performance of the CPU depends of the architecture as well as the process. The process determines how fast a transistor can switch and how long a logic gate takes to execute an instruction. The maximum speed a CPU can perform is the inverse of the sum of delay of all the gates it take to execute an instruction.
