   : The NCR keeps up with any current drive easily,

   Are there any newer? What benchmarks do you think representative?

   desaster is an ASUS TP4XE with P90 and PS2 SIMM 16M RAM,
   DPT SCSI Controller PM2024/A with Seagate ST31200N 1G SCSI
   running Linux 1.3.22. Bonnie was compiled with -O2 and nothing else.
   The benchmarks where taken on a relatively quiet time, with only one
   person on the terminal using irc/telnet/pine. 

Nothing personal meant by this, but those numbers kinda suck.

(Meaning, my 486DX2/80 EISA bus with BT747s and a mediocre Quantum
TB850 drive blow those out of the water.  And, mine are not the
fastest figures I've seen.)
