And my 80 MHz Q60 (GCC-compiled): 101010 Dhrystone/s

Native 68k code 3.1 times faster...

I'm sure there will be 3.1 GHz x86 chips someday... but that don't impress
me much.

BTW the effective speed of the x86 chips seems to rise slower than their
clock frequency so it'll probably take much more than a 3.1 GHz x86 chip.

Mark, thanks very much for your work on the Q60 SMSQ patches.

Peter
