Kevin - Re: "Wouldn't you be disappointed if Katmai using KNI got you only 85.1 in Transformation and vanilla PII got you 78.7? That's not a big improvement." Either one is a helluva improvement over the K6-2 400 at only 58.2 Re: "Transformation must draw heavily on L1, which is why the Katmai outperformed the PII here. " Doesn't the K6-2 have a 64 KiloByte L1 cache? The Pentium II has only a 32 K L1 cache. By your argument, the K6-2 should OUTPERFROM the Pentium II. Paul
