Unfortunatelly, this time it was not text either... FWIW, here's
what I got after cating the mail to file and runing thru
'lynx -dump -force_html'

I would be interested to see benchmarks of it. Can you run the
benchmark
at my page? It only takes a minute.

Hello Dan.

The Athlon 500 MHz (only, form now, sneeef ;-) is a really GREAT
performer.

I had tree days delay in getting my Athlon. It is now up since
Saturday morning 7.30 am.
Wow, what a night and very few sleep.

My 'normal' medical 3D visualization programs run twice as fast as
with my K6-III 400. But floating point intensive applications runs
three (yes 3 :-) times faster as with the K6-III 400.

--->
To Alan:

I have to put 'append = "mem=256M"' in my '/etc/lilo.conf' file.
Without it I only get 64 MB of system memory. Get some 'Unable to
handle kernel paging request at virtual address xxxxxxxx' faults.
Later more...
My kernel and all the other stuff was compiled on my 'old' K6-III 400.
Should I recompile the binutils, compiler, glibc-2.1.1,
glibc-2.1.2pre3 and the like with my Athlon? I got some compiler
'sigfaults' during my first attempts.

Here are my results!!! :-)

If you need some more stuff, feel free to ask me about it. I have some
Mesa-3.1 beta2 (CVS) benchmarks, too.

Some little problems still exists: (for example with unix bench)

Process Creation Test 1 2 3sleep: error in loading shared libraries:
/lib/libcrypt.so.1: symbol __deregister_frame_info, version GLIBC_2.0
not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference

Filesystem Throughput Test (10 second test) 1 2 3 4 5
