Hi there.
The enclosed patch against kernel 2.2.9 increases the precision of the
BogoMIPS calculation sufficiently to allow the result to be printed to
three decimal places rather than the current 2 decimal places.
I developed it simply because I prefer to see suchlike figures to 3dp
and I'm not worried whether it ever makes its way into the official
kernel, but it's here anyway.
Best wishes from Riley.
