Joe & Intel Investors - Early Benchmark Data on Pentium IIIs

Here are the relevant highlights concerning the KNI instructions:

"Later in the article they also give some examples for SSE-optimized programs. The P-III-500 is then capable of improvements ranging from 45% (Dragonfly Naturally Speaking), 52% (Microsoft Netshow encoder) to 91% (specific filters in Adobe Photoshop 5.2).

45% Improvement with KNI - Dragon Naturally Speaking

52% Improvement with KNI - Net SHow Encoder

91% Improvement with KNI - Specific Filters for Adobe Photoshop 5.2

Now that is IMPRESSIVE

This "early warning" appears quite positive - for KNI-SPECIFIC software.
