- You are about the fourth person claiming that the SE/30 should be faster
- than a IIsi, and not telling us why.
-
- My experience and Speedometer tells me that IIsi is *significantly faster*
- than SE/30, except when the active application is loaded in VRAM (which is
- easily avoided by setting the disk cache high).
-
- The SE/30 is a good Mac, but for some reason people overrate it a lot on
- the net, claiming that it should be faster than IIsi or more than twice
- as fast as a Classic II. Both these claims are false.
