I just got done reading that paper. The 233 mhz Imacs did really bad in those tests. Not being able to compile half the benchmarks because of limitations of glibc-1.99 probably didn't help either.
I'm very interested to see the results from a 450 mhz blue & white G3 with glibc-2.1. (at least with glibc-2.1 one should be able to compile everything that builds on a Red Hat 6.0 system)
