Don't be so pessimistic.

I have a copy of a paper on PA-RISC 1.1 published in "Spring '91 IEEE
COMPCON Digest of Papers".

According to the paper, the performance of PA-RISC 1.1 Workstation is:

Clock	Cache		Dhrystone1.1	LINPACK		SPECmarks
(MHz)	(I/D)		VAX/MIPS	MFLOPS		Overall	Integer	Float
50	128K/256K	59.0		13.7		42.8	38.1	46.2
66	128K/256K	76.0		18.1		55.3	49.9	60.1

It should be noted that, the new "PA-RISC 1.1 Workstation" may not be
"s700 system". :-)
