On the 030 board.  It runs at 25 MHZ (68000 runs at 7.something).  But custom 
chip (Denise, angus and Paula) coprocessors all still run at the 7.** rate.  
Sooo, this is 3.6 times as fast for processor type operations.  BUT, ther REAL 
speed comes in applications that use the math coprocessor (68882, 25MHz) onthe 
030 board.  Programs that  have version that use this chip, (mostly 
race-tracing programs like turbo silver and Sculpt Animate) can cut time to 
render down to 20% and more.  2620 benchmarks are in Aiga Whirled july 89.

Fast ram: is about 3 time faster.  See article for more.  Gotta go, the 
SIMPSONS are coming on!!! -jim-
