I just picked up a Digital Celebris XL 6150 Pentium Pro (150MHz), and I installed FreeBSD 2.1R - no problems with the install, the DEC uses an NCR on-board SCSI Bios / COntroller, and everthing worked fine (the Celebris line use daughter cards to hold the CPU and Ram so you can switch between ALpha's and PPro's..) I was wondering if the following 'time' result is reasonable (for a kernel rebuild, all options - seemed like a good benchmark to me :-)). The machine only has 16 MB of RAM. The reason I ask is that I'm curious if a "normal" pentium 200 with SRAM would be faster.. Anyways, the results: $ time make . . 183.8u 32.6s 5:20.20 67.9% 989+1207K 1380+59565io 61pf + 0w Any experience/opinions of the Pentium Pro's would be greatly appreciated. -Mark ------------------------------------------- | Mark Mayo mark@quickweb.com | | C-Soft www.quickweb.com | ------------------------------------------- "To iterate is human, to recurse divine." - L.
