Dell Precision 420 (i840 chipset) with a single PIII 800 and probably one
RIMM, unknown speed:
{rivendell:/usr/home/ken/src:76:0} ./memspeed 4
1049.51 MBytes/sec (read)
{rivendell:/usr/home/ken/src:77:0} ./memspeed 1024
378.41 MBytes/sec (read)
The above machine may not have been completely idle, it seems a little
slow.
Dual 1GHz PIII SuperMicro 370DE6 Serverworks HE-SL chipset, 4x256MB PC133
ECC Registered DIMMs:
{gondolin:/usr/home/ken/src:51:0} ./memspeed 4
1985.95 MBytes/sec (read)
{gondolin:/usr/home/ken/src:52:0} ./memspeed 1024
516.62 MBytes/sec (read)

The previous test showed about 270MB/sec on my Serverworks box:
{gondolin:/usr/home/ken/src:53:0} ./memory_speed
269.23 MBytes/sec (copy)
