Okay, that's scary. My K6-2 400 (196MB Ram, 512K L2) clocked in at exactly
400 seconds under exactly the same conditions as yours (I'm running Windows
2000, though).

That means that yours is goin' at 7.303 pixels per second per MHZ and mines
goin' at 4.915 pixels per second per MHZ. I knew K6-2s were not as powerful
in FPU power as P2s but I didn't expect to be beaten by a Pentium MMX!
