It's actually not as fast as I would have thought:

8800 MIPS at 2.0 GHz.

Look at the figures of some of the Intel CPUS.

Having said that, it blows away existing and available PowerPC chips that are currently running AmigaOS 4.

How should one read that table? As the instructions / clock cycle rises quite fast with newer cpus, I assume it is mainly because they have more cores?
