Re: Lower bogomips in debian?

1998-08-17 Thread Christopher Barry
I have a Pentium-MMX 166MHz overclocked to 200MHz and I get 399.77. I
believe 332.60 is the exact number I got to when I had it clocked at
166MHz. That definately is a weird problem you've got.

FWIW,

 Hi, I just recently installed debian 2.0 on my pc at home and I just
 noticed something odd as I booted. Since I have started using debian it
 shows 249.04 bogomips whereas when I used to run slackware,redhat,suse it
 would show 332.60 bogomips. I know this probably isnt such a big deal but
 it struck me as being odd. I have built another kernel and it show the
 same 249.04 number, then I tried booting off a slackware 3.5 bootdisk I
 have and it reported the 332.60. Anyway just thought I would ask if there
 was some sort of reason of this inconsistency, other then that I am very
 pleased with debian 2.0. Oh by the way I am using a Pentium 166/MMX
 processor with 96MB RAM.
 
 Thanks!

Why does my Cyrix 200 M2 only get ~150?  I thought that BogoMips were
only a measure of integer performance.  I guess the Bogo for bogus is
right!

Re: Lower bogomips in debian?

The bogomips value you see at booting time depends
only on the kernel, not on the distribution.
Maybe that the bogomips calculation algorithm is changed
from a kernel version to an other.
And remember that the bogomips value is bogus ;)
