Today I noticed something very strange: the BogoMips of my Linux
machine, an AMD DX4/100, is at 49.87. I remember from days gone by
that it was 50.08. On closer inspection, I saw that this strange
behaviour started when I upgraded from 1.3.10 to 1.3.40.
Anyone out there experienced the same?

Yes, with my 486 DX2/66 I used to get 33.55 BogoMips withQuote:>Today I noticed something very strange: the BogoMips of my Linux

Having ugraded to a 100 Mhz Cx 6x86 i get the following results:
Kernel 1.2.13: 99.42 BogoMips
Kernel 1.3.88: 78.43 BogoMips
Quite some difference. Have the algorithm for the Bogomips test
been changed or what?
BTW, does anyone know what i should claim the 686 to be when
compiling the kernel? 486, Pentium, Pentium Pro?

All,
Read the BogoMips mimi-HOWTO!!!

I was installing Debian Linux after upgrading my hardware when I found
that I was not installing the most recent stable version.
I was installing off buzz which contained 1.1 version (kernel 2.0.0)
while stable contained 1.1.9 (kernel 2.0.6).
The strange thing is that on booting using 2.0.0 kernel bootdisk, I got
120.01
BogoMIPS. But when I switched to 2.0.6, it dropped down to 78.
I know it is not the measure of speed of the system or anything, but
there must
be some change in algorithm computing it to produce such a drastic
change in result with identical system.
Anyone knows? I might have missed some posts.
Thanks.
