My results running postmark on a PII-450 with 196MB RAM and an IBM Deskstar
DJNA 352030 running -current as of a few weeks ago are:
1000/50000 UFS+softupdates MFS NFS
tr/s 218 1562 100
read kb/s 699.05 4870 321.56
write kb/s 714.77 4980 328.79
The NFS server is a PII-233 with 32MB RAM (I know...) and a Maxtor 91728D8
IDE disk running 3.2R.
It seems strange that the 'old PPro 200' would have better results than my
PII-450, but there's probably some optimizations that I haven't done yet.
