I think I would be concerned too. I have an AMD K6-2 3D 350 MHz
processor, overclocked to 400MHz and I get the following from cat
/proc/cpuinfo:
processor : 0
cpu : 586
model : AMD-K6(tm) 3D processor
vendor_id : AuthenticAMD
stepping : A
fdiv_bug : no
hlt_bug : no
f00f_bug : no
fpu : yes
fpu_exception : yes
cpuid : yes
wp : yes
flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr mce cx8 syscr mmx 3dnow
bogomips : 801.18
Sorry if I state the obvious, but you are running at 3.5 x 100 MHz? You
do have 100 MHz memory?
I have found in the past on a couple of occasions I have had ludicrously
low bogomips figures and have re-compiled the kernel (not even changing
the settings!) and the rate has gone up the next time i have re-booted.
Only ever happened with a RedHat system - don't know why.
What kernel are you using? There are a couple of AMD K6-2 patches
around.
