I made a slight (ahem) error in my posting on the 10MHz Rocket.
Here follows the true relative speeds, as measured by an early version of
Dhryhack.  (The version I posted will give different numbers.)

1MHz Apple II, Aardvaark Pascal:                    64.1
10MHZ RocketChip, Aardvaark Pascal:                342
Mac SE, Think Pascal:                              691
Vax 11/785 (unix, load unknown), Berkeley Pascal: 1750
Mac II, Think Pascal:                             2070

The 10MHz Rocket is only about five times faster.
Anyone want to run Dhryhack on their 13MHz Transwarp GS?  :-)
