Fuck no.

"Completely made up number that you cannot explain" is not consistency.

The *current* situation is consistency. I can - and have in this very
thread - explained what bogomips is in just a sentence or two.

You are just making shit up. Bad shit. Get off the drugs, because it's
not the good kind.

Cry me a river.

So you want to make bogomips a totally random number, that has no
meaning, no correlation to any clocksource, and no correlation to cpu
frequency either?

And you argue for this though exactly WHAT? "Consistency".

Bullshit.

This whole thread is now marked as "muted" for me, because I can't
take the BS any more. You make no sense.

You guys playing games with bogomips was what broke things in the
first place, and now you want to play *more* games?

You're crazy. Go away. Or don't. I won't be seeing your emails anyway,
so why would I care?
