normally, (ie, every other kernel) my machine (a plain P150) gets about 60
bogomips. with 2.1.123-2 (not -1, though) the bogomips are all over the
place - two boots so far, one got 280, the other got 175! i know that
bogomips don't mean that much, but this seems a little strange here... the

By shooting the person who did the latter.
