[comp.sys.mac] SE/30 Benchmarks

I've just seen the Byte benchmarks and find it difficult to understand
the apparent inconsistencies with the Disk I/O tests.  The SCSI test
for 32 blocks takes 154.3 seconds for the SE/30 and only 35.6 seconds
for the IIx, yet the reads and writes using the file system are almost
identical.  How can this be?
