I ran a couple of benchmarks with RapidCAD against 386DX and 486DLC, it was slightly faster than the 386 but really good at floats, it also runs quite hot!! I think it needs a heatsink.
If I get another RapidCAD set perhaps I can send it so you can exporiment a little with it.

yah I imagine they do get quite hot, as they dissipate heat about like a 486 but in a smaller package.

The motherboard limits integer operations on these is why they arent much faster then a normal 386.

floats is a shole different story.
