Where's the quality control!?!?!! I'm just joking folks! I just wanted to see how fast I could go. Nothing could be stable with a 41% gain. By the way I love all the little tools that are hidden, just waiting to be discovered(/usr/local/lib/lmbench/bin/bsd/mhz, for example)! I was impressed that FreeBSD would handle that at all! Winblows 95 wouldn't even boot. I was using regular EDO RAM, so maybe if I got the expensive stuff it would work out better. I went down to 166.99 mhz and so far everything seems to run fine.
