plan 9 may not need ghz but it sure uses them well.  we just installed a new 
5000P-based cpu server with a single dual-core 1.85ghz woodcrest.

        ; cd /sys/src/fs/kibbiee
        ; mk clean; time mk>/dev/null
        1.22u 1.17s 2.16r        mk

        ; cd /sys/src/9/pc
        ; mk clean; time mk 'CONF=pc'>/dev/null
        3.80u 3.35s 5.71r        mk CONF=pc

that's with just one of the on-board nics using standard frames
and ken's fileserver serving files via il.
