These are bad.  IE the dual 248 comes very close to doubling the
nps of the single 248, based on the 1-2-4 846 numbers I posted here
a couple of weeks ago.

>If the future dual core AMD gets 2296 knps,


It should do better than that.  Whether it will equal a dual 84x is
speculation (but not likely) but it ought to get reasonably decent
performance.  IE close to 2x...

two dual-cores ought to be within spitting distance of four single
processors, the question is how much will the memory contention for
a single controller impact performance...
