Mediator + Voodoo 3 test results : Comment 5 of 7ANN.lu

In reply to Comment 4 (Nathaniel Downes):
Yes, and this was excepted result.
The Apollo cards have a floating bus, ie. the cards do not follow the spec
100%, where p5/dce cards implement the bus stuff properly. The result is
that Apollo cards are faster with Mediator.
(This is how I understand it, correct me if I'm wrong.)
Anyway the PPC chip is not used by the test at all, since the CGFX is m68k
with normal system. Also the P96Speed program is m68k and not PPC. Now if
someone would port P96Speed to Morphos and run the test with PPC native CGFX,
those results could be rather interesting.
I will also run the P96Speed on my system (240MHz 603p + 060@50, pm2@97MHz)
just to be sure those results are somewhat correct... :-) Results later.
