Yes, you are rigth. But again, with Byte Unix version 4.1 I got much more intersting result with no "strange" numbers, I tried that test few hours ago,. I know I can disable APM from both the kernel and the BIOS but I'd like to test the kernel I use in "daily" usage. What do you think about it? Do you suggest me to use a different configuration when I run the test? And, what are the "best" benchmark? I use dbench, LMbench, and Unix Bench Ver4.1.
