Fair enough. Its speed on your own system may matter less to you than you think, as well. ;-) > just curious whether the speed VIA claims, 25Gbps(!) peak is achievable Peak rate is a useless number. If it were sustainable, it wouldn't be quoted as a "peak" rate; and if it's not sustainable, it doesn't affect the perceived performance. >> I just care that it offloads the ALU.

Yes. it is. >> > BTW... `ubench`? :) >> >> Not impressive. > > you're using the same board as OP? No, not at all; I didn't mean to imply I was. I have the slowest (and lowest powered) Via chips I could get. The ubench numbers are slightly lower than the Pentium II system it replaced, at a similar clock rate. Note that I didn't mean the numbers were bad, either... _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hardware To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
