Can anyone tell me what the perceived performance while running FreeBSD
might be between these two systems?

33Mhz Cyrix 486DLC w/64Mb external cache
33Mhz Intel 486DX w/no external cache

I am willing to make a lateral move to be able to do the install,
but I'd really hate to have to take a step backwards, even a small one.
(Yes, for some reason, even though other people are reporting success,
my 486DLC won't run FreeBSD 2.X).  I am trying to do this without
spending any money.... :-}
