[comp.sys.amiga] GVP030 at 30mhz

I was just down at Creative Computers in Lawndale on Saturday
demonstrating X11 at Frank's 2nd Annual opening celebration.

I got to use an A2000 with a GVP030 at 30mhz and 32bit memory.
That combination really cooks. It was perceptably faster then
any other Amiga I have used.

I had a copy of xbench along and decided to run it. Here are
the results along with a few others for comparison.

X11 Release 3, which happens to start shipping Oct 1 for the
Amiga if you are interested, was used.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
A2000/GVP030-30	24086	11486	18927	37812	49334	24444	21588
A2500	stock	12228	 8483	15872	26812	16960	14379	14145
SUN3/50		10000	10000	10000	10000	10000	10000	10000
A2000	2m mem	 5093	 4779	11799	11000	 8355	 6732	 6938

To interpret the results:
The values from the benchmark for a sun3/50 were normalized to achieve
a rating of 10000 for each of its catagories. The higher the rating the
supposedly faster the system is. Of course mileage may vary.
