    ChaosScript2and3 ..... 157

Its not a simple multiplier on your results, possibly due to different
CPU:Video performance ratios on the two machines. I see a lot of variation
in times with subsequent runs of ChaosScript2and3 taking 117 and 184
seconds.

  Cheap locally assembled box
    Processor ... AMD Athlon 600
    Memory ...... 384 MB
    Video ........... NVIDIA RIVA TNT2 64

Software

  Window 2000
  Python 2.2

   Mmm, performance of these applications is so central to my efficiency
that I must buy a better machine ;-)
