All are 21164 [CPU] based. With GCC performance on the Alpha, in some tasks the 500au's perform as you would expect (vs. a 500 Pentium II/III). For some takes they perform more like a 350MHz Pentium II). A cluster of 21264 based machines would be really nice. Once 5.0-CURRENT/STABLE can be used for package building, I might be able to get a Quad 500MHz 21164 involved. > It is pretty quick as it stands but with a better beta and a couple of > more machines it could almost keep up with the blistering pace of the > bento cluster. :) Well..... being 21164 based, we'd need a *lot* more machines to keep up with the Bento run cluster. But we need a goal, don't we. -- -- David (obrien@FreeBSD.org) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
