I've been telling these folks that the ASUS PCI/I-486SP3G was one
heck of a fast motherboard, and here are the numbers from an independent
source to prove it for me!!

Those memory numbers are as fast as the Neptune P90 ASUS board, kinda
pisses me off that I can't get 48MB/sec out of the Neptune when I
can get 24MB/sec out of the Saturn II!

It does not as long as there is the free 8MB or so of memory needed
by this process (ie, page faulting would rune the results).
