Could anyone offer an explanation for the vast differences
in speed particularly in comparing the PowerMac 9500 series
with the SparcStation 20 series?

To my knowledge, the Sparcstations were supposed to be very
powerful numbercrunchers. So why do they perform so poorly
with Mathematica?

Thanks for any hints
