it is definetely a cache issue !
the k6-2 has a bigger cache.
all other programs have small engines. cstal has a BIG engine.
cstal win95 runs 2 times faster on an amdk6-3 than on an amdk6-2
with the same speed. because of caching. of course - if cstal
engine would be SMALLER, it would react like all other programs.
but it isn't small.
