I'd like to thank those who replied to my earlier posting on
ci vs si. The overall impression I get is that the ci is a better
machine (faster, easier to upgrade) but that the si is priced
very attractively such that there is no clear cut answer. I'd
like to know if we could be a little more specific in terms of
performance differential (upgrading is not a major concern right
now).
If I run speedometer 2.5 on my ci, I get the following results
w/o FPU w FPU
KWhet: 104 895
Dhrys: 5,366 5,649
Sieve: 3.78 3.77
Savage: 22.667 7.233
CPU: 6.68 6.68
Math: 13.79 154
I/O: 3.23 3.23
Overall 7.42 N.D.
How does the si compare? (everything above is in B/W mode)
Thanks
Stephane
