I just did a few speed tests using SysInfo on some of the Amigas here. These are the results:
A600 (2MB Chip, No FastRAM)
526 Dhrystones
0.54 MIPS
A600 (2MB Chip, 2MB PCMCIA SRAM)
699 Dhrystones
0.72 MIPS
A1200 (2MB Chip, No FastRAM)
1092 Dhrystones
1.13 MIPS
A1200 (2MB Chip, 2MB PCMCIA SRAM)
840 Dhrystones
0.87 MIPS
A1200 (2MB Chip, 8MB FastRAM)
2819 Dhrystones
2.94 MIPS
Some RAM makes the Amiga perform faster, other RAM can slow it down.
