	Does anyone out there know how the instruction
execution speed for MicroVAXes compares with 750's or 780's?
I'd imagine it'd be considerably slower for the emulated
floating point stuff, but how about the 'general purpose'
instructions?
 
Please respond directly....I'm not on the distribution list.

Many Thanks!

Benchmarks I have seen indicate that the MicroVAX I runs approximately
25-35% of a 780 for implemented instructions.
