Boy that is strange. I have a 9650/350 604ev in front of me that I upgraded to a 500 MHz IBM copper G3 with a zif carrier card and the speed increase was very dramatic. And the stock processor was way faster than your 180 MHz processor to start with. Same thing with a 7500 that had a 225 MHz 604e card and 1 meg of L2 cache that now has a 400 MHz G3. How exactly are you benchmarking your not "dramatic" speed increase?
