Maybe you mis-read the results. The 50MB/s quoted looks like the read speed from FAST ram to me...the video card is doing:

$40000000 readw   690.1ns    2.9MByte/s
$40000000 readl   690.1ns    5.8MByte/s
$40000000 readm   693.7ns    5.8MByte/s
$40000000 writew  538.2ns    3.7MByte/s
$40000000 writel  538.7ns    7.4MByte/s
$40000000 writem  538.2ns    7.4MByte/s

Assuming $40000000 is zorro video card RAM....this would be about right for ZIII I think.

Thanks for the refresher...long time since I had my CV64 :-)

Needless to say Jose was indeed looking at the wrong results for a bus speed indication.

Cheers,
