Apparently you had the PowerMath switch on. That redirects any SANE math calls normally processed by the CPU to the FPU. It works even with an 030 PowerCache that doesn't have an FPU installed. Evidentially you wrote your benchmark to use SANE functions. ===== http://www.junkscience.com "All the Junk that's fit to Debunk!" __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
