    Well, my team has passed jepace@ucdavis.edu, and we're closing in
on macliffo@engr.ucdavis.edu.  Are either of those you?  :)

    Hrm... Amancio reports almost 300000 keys/sec on his PPro200.
Amazingly a Cyrix P133 clocks in at just over 180000 keys/sec running
a recent Linux.  The Cyrix chips seem to do much better overall that
an equivalently-clocked Intel Pentium.
