this was discussed a couple of weeks ago. apparently the bogomips
number has been doubled by the kernel code. 1 old bogomip = 2 new
ones. afaik there is nothing amiss with your system.
you are right to ask. while bogomips don't mean much in and of
themselves, a wild variation from the usual is often an indication of
a problem (like having your L2 cache disabled).
