Yes that would seem about right. The problem I have is that my 166MMX
gives me 149.9 BogoMips on my Slackware partition and only 130.6 on my
Debian partition. Same hardware (same box). The numbers may be meaningless but
I wonder why my Debian kernel runs slower! Slackware kernel made with
the ole standby, make dep, clean, zImage. Debian with make-kpkg. I
have tried different kernels on Slackware and the 149.9 stays the
same. For different Debian kernels the numbers vary from 120 -130.6.
Courious about why this should be.
