Huh? Is this a typo? Certainly the performance of a single PII 
333Mhz was considerably better than a PPro 200Mhz in the tests I
ran here. On the order of about 40% faster, as a matter of fact
(this was for running gmake, gcc, and binutils to do a cross compile
of about 2000 source files).

Note that both motherboards were Intel. The PPro was a PR440FX, the
PII was a DK440LX. (In both cases the second CPU was unused :-( )
