Before anyone gets too excited about these "benchmark" results, I
just want to point out that Whetstone is a measure of FLOATING POINT
MATH performance, and thus is likely to be irrelevant to most 3000
applications.

It might be a good way of finding out whether the FPU in your system
actually works or not, which you might otherwise have never known :-)
