You misunderstood the process, you need reference conditions to measure
something, I just set it to 1GHz P3. With a load of 2 without
swapping, that reference just would have been a 500MHz P3, but
that's still an arbirary choice :). When swapping or heavy I/O all bets
are off anyway (with 2.4 kernels at least).
