Hmm, a 200 MHz Pentium (MMX), 3.2-RELEASE, everything in cache: $ /usr/bin/time file twofish.tar.gz twofish.tar.gz: gzip compressed data, deflated, last modified: Mon Jun 15 02:40:53 1998, os: Unix 0.35 real 0.24 user 0.10 sys I'd say that considering that things are cached (cpu-bound), it's very accurately proportional to Leif's time. Variances can be accounted for by the slight implementation differences (the MMX version has a bigger L1 and better branch prediction). It's also reasonably proportional to a 400 MHz PII (0.09/0.08/0.01 running 3.2 -- 0.06/0.04/0.01 running 2.2.8, BTW). Considering the completely different core, this is also quite close to what you might expect. > I can't reproduce the complaint using a 64MB PII-266 running -CURRENT - > there's no evidence of lack of speed, and profiling file(1) doesn't > show any anomolies.
