Todays?  I will get the wrath of the list members on my head by saying
this, and even though I have a lot slower boxes, they do not exactly race
away.
The ones back then?  They stomp them.  After all, they were expensive
workstations when they came out.
The SCSI-bus is pretty slow, the NIC is 10 Mbit only, but hey, you just
can't throw away computer history.  And the way they are built, they
should run forever.
