68000 unix (sun board)
Just some very un-official info....We have a sun board (10Mhz) and have
a bit of timing info:

       "Get into vi editing /etc/termcap (~25k chars)":
               - 68000: 5.5 seconds (no other vi on system)
               - 11/70: 6.6 seconds, with other vi's around
               - 68000: 3.5 seconds with other vi around

Both of the 68000 times INCLUDE having to look up the terminal in termcap.
Not bad....Oh yeah, the disk is a ~35Mb fujitsu with multibus SMD controller.
