Hmm, how about some lmbench and/or 
bytebench results for that CPU ?

It is very cheap and should be able
to drive the PCI bus at a full 33MHz,
and since my main application isn't
games :) it most probably is fast
enough for a small to medium sized
server ...

Some performance claims I've seen seem
to indicate, that it performs well on
32 bit codes.
