[vmips] Linux BogoMIPS

Sorry, forgot to add this to my post:
I see the same 1.05 BogoMIPS value you had. This is true no matter
what hardware I run VMIPS on. I've run it on a pokey old PII 400 MHz
and a new P4 3.2 GHz box and the BoboMIPS number is the same. Is this
due to something hard-coded in the RTC part of VMIPS? In real time it
seems to run about 3 times faster on the P4, but I expected it to be
faster than that compared to the P2.
Finally, if I leave Linux "running" after it appears to hang I
eventually see this:
"RTC counted 50000 interrupts"
"RTC counted 100000 interrupts"
That's what leads me to believe Linux is actually running under there
somewhere. I know those are VMIPS messages, but if Linux was actually
hung in an exception loop somewhere I wouldn't expect to see those.
Thanks again.
