So, in theory, the CP engine can also run at 192 MIPS, but is intentionally restrained?

Hi Loren, >From the meetings we had with IBM the IFL speed will remain at 192 mips. The basic difference between a CP engine and an IFL engine is that the microcode for the IFL engine is modified to only except Linux workloads not "legacy" stuff. If there is more magic at the hardware level it was not revealed in our meetings...
