Does anyone know what heuristic is used by the Norton Utilities' 'si'
program to determine the performance ratio vs. the IBM-PC?

After installing a V20 in my Tandy 1000, the figure jumped from 1.0 to 1.8
(an AT&T 6300 with an 8mhz 8086 only rates 1.9). Meanwhile most other
benchmarks showed only about a 10% increase in speed. Odd!

Thanks in advance.
