When I was solicting benchmark for Crafty , the Celeron above 1.3 ghz were really bad. Worse than P4. The P3's were the best for Crafty in terms of NPS/Mhz of the Intel processors. You can check this site out - but I have already done some calcualtions. On average - a high end PIII would perform the Crafty Spec at ~ 530/Ghz. The current crop of Xeons at 3.6 Ghz pefrom ye Crafty Spec generally at 360-390/Ghz with the highend processors like the MP that have 2MB cache doing the best, but they generally cost much than a plain Xeon. The processors with 800Mgz bus generally spec out 3-4% faster than the 533Mhz bus. They do not have any Celeron results. The fastest current Intel in the Intyel Extreme edition that does the Crafty Spec at 400/Ghz. Still a long ways from the 500+/ghz that the P3 did.
