FWIW Hyperion is not bankrupt.

BTW, a Pegasos 2 with a 1Ghz CPU outperforms the X1000 with a 1.8GHz CPU? I didn't know the X1000 was that slow! The firmware looks and acts alike.

Very nice chart, but it seems to be missing a few distributions:

No. At least not in most tasks. There were some issues (eg. Basilisk 2 emulator), but in MOST tasks PA6T should (and IS) faster than G4 1 GHz.

To name few benchmarks (from my memory - you may look for X1000 benchmarks thread here on AW):

Blender Benchmark: PA6T 1.8 GHz (single core) as fast as G4 1.4 GHz
DosBox Benchmark: PA6T 1.8 GHz (single core) as fast as G4 1.5 GHz
FFT related benchmarks: PA6T 1.8 GHz (single core) as fast as G4 2 GHz
dnetc (OGR-NG): PA6T 1.8 GHz (single core) as fast as G4 1 GHz (G4 AltiVec is strong)
MPlayer benchmark: PA6T 1.8 GHz (single core) as fast as G4 1.9 GHz
Compilation (small program) in C: PA6T 1.8 GHz (single core) as fast as G4 1.9 GHz

etc.

In most applications, PA6T 1.8 GHz (single core) would be close to G4 1.4 GHz.
