For DIEP about 2.0 times faster.

2.127Ghz K7 gives about 100k nps here
P4 3.2Ghz (800Mhz bus) with 2 threads see aceshardware.com

so do the math.

Overclocking the P4 to 3.5ghz or so and also overclocking bus doing that is
speeding up the node count of diep quite some though. Way more than i had
expected, as proven by Ron Langeveld.
