According to Bork, a DSP executes almost twice as many instructions in one cycle as an application processor giving its dual-core solution, 400 MIPs for the DSP plus 175 MIPs for the ARM, for a total of 575 MIPS. Peter Green, general manager of Intel's handheld computing division, said that due to changes in the architecture, the 400MHz XScale will give users 480 MIPS, 1.2 MIPS per megahertz Since the actual processor is 175 mips, I don't think you can compare it to the XScale. The DSP is for specialized audio or video coding, so you especially can't add the 2 for performance. My personal oppinion is that this device is NOT faster than a Pentium 90 Mhz. Pichard.
