LMbench 2.4.0-test10pre-UP vs. 2.2.18pre-UP

From: Jeff Garzik (jgarzik@mandrakesoft.com)
Date: Mon Oct 23 2000 - 17:20:05 EST


Hardware:
Single P-III 500 Mhz
64 MB RAM
13GB hard drive

First five tests were with 2.4.0-test10-pre4.
Final four tests were with 2.2.18-pre17.

All are 'virgin' kernels, without any patches.
