Figure 4. Relative Score performance of Pentium/166.
. .
. .
The results and performance are very similar to that of the Pentium/133.
. .
. .
This data again illustrates the power of the L2 cache combined with the faster clock speed of
. .
the Pentium/166. It is clear that a single Pentium/166 easily outperforms two or four
. .
. .
Pentium/100 CPUs.
. .
. .
The server is less quick to consume processor resource. 800 users can easily be supported
. .
. . with subsecond response time.
