You don't understand....just because it accepts the floating point value,
doesn't mean it takes advantage of the hardware FPU.....it could elect to
use floating point calculations in emulation-mode which is a LOT slower.....
Regarding the cache......I wonder how much of a difference it makes on
TS2000i performance ?
