    I just got one of these the other day and installed it.  I've
read before that they accept the full pentium instruction set.
For all but a few things, it's a fair amount faster than my
P90(@100).  I did notice that these applications that seem slower
are built with pgcc pentium optimization.  Does anyone know if I
need to build with -m486 to get better performance out of this
chip, or should I stick with -mpentium?  Thanks!
