[net.wanted] Want info on floating-point accelerator

djb@burdvax.UUCP (09/27/83)

	We are contemplating buying a floating-point accelerator (FP780) for
our VAX-11/780.  Does anybody have information on the increase in performance
that can be expected with this option?  Currently, the cpu utilization by
floating-point intensive processes is about 20%.  We would like to reduce this
time significantly.  Any info or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
