I'd like to make sure that everyone understands that my original posting comparing a 1.7 GHz. z9 against a 2.0 GHz. Pentium was done tongue in cheek....;-)
When I got my hands on a z9 we ran some instruction sequences to determine the cycle time. That procedure worked fine for G5 and G6, but with the z9 the game was different. We ended up trying to see how many extra instructions you could add to the loop without slowing it down. Very confusing...
