Can anybody tell me what this means? I have just replaced 2 x 32 mb
66 MHz memory thingies with 2 x 128 mb PC-133.

Looking at my messages log, with the old memory:

Nov 12 06:14:05 sage kernel: raid5: MMX detected, trying high-speed MMX checksum
 routines
Nov 12 06:14:05 sage kernel:    pII_mmx   :   687.324 MB/sec
Nov 12 06:14:05 sage kernel:    p5_mmx    :   605.409 MB/sec
Nov 12 06:14:05 sage kernel:    8regs     :   475.488 MB/sec
Nov 12 06:14:05 sage kernel:    32regs    :   332.232 MB/sec
Nov 12 06:14:05 sage kernel: using fastest function: pII_mmx (687.324 MB/sec)

With the new:

Nov 14 17:28:13 sage kernel: raid5: MMX detected, trying high-speed MMX checksum
 routines
Nov 14 17:28:13 sage kernel:    pII_mmx   :   456.819 MB/sec
Nov 14 17:28:13 sage kernel:    p5_mmx    :   401.193 MB/sec
Nov 14 17:28:13 sage kernel:    8regs     :   363.093 MB/sec
Nov 14 17:28:13 sage kernel:    32regs    :   256.032 MB/sec
Nov 14 17:28:13 sage kernel: using fastest function: pII_mmx (456.819 MB/sec)

Why the difference and what does it mean?

Thanks for help,
Alan
