>From Jargon File (4.2.3, 23 NOV 2000) [jargon]:

  BogoMIPS /bo'go-mips/ n.  The number of million times a second
  a processor can do absolutely nothing.        The {Linux} OS measures
  BogoMIPS at startup in order to calibrate some soft timing loops
  that will be used later on; details at the BogoMIPS mini-HOWTO
  (http://www.hobby.nl/~clifton).  The name Linus chose, of course, is an
  ironic comment on the uselessness of all _other_ {MIPS} figures.

Jadi BogoMIPS adalah nama, untuk masalah timing (mungkin dari "Bogus MIPS";
MIPS sendiri maknanya sudah kabur, ditambah "bogus").

IMHO, kalau untuk membandingkan antara versi kernel yang sama, barangkali
angka bogomips masih valid, setidaknya bisa digunakan untuk melihat
raw performance dari suatu sistem. Tapi kalau dari 2.2.x ke 2.4.x mungkin
tidak, soalnya kan jadi hampir dua kalinya.
