Repeat after me: BogoMIPS are bogus... BogoMIPS are bogus... BogoMIPS are bogus. They are only useful in the context of one system. If your system is running at X BogoMIPS, and then you tweak a setting and now it's at X+Y BogoMIPS, your system is running faster. You can't use BogoMIPS as a benchmark to tell if a P4 is faster than an XP or not. For that, you need a program that measures real MIPS... Or some other subjective comparision like kernel compile times.
