Hmm - so your machine reads memory twice as fast as mine, which is 
great! but I'm not sure it actually shows anything useful ... let me 
guess - a P4 with DDR or DDR2 memory??? maybe if we look a bit harder at 
buffer cache performance you could get 1.2GB/s or more - wouldn't that 
be a good thing?

Cheers
