  I believe that this means that the machine is running at a multiple of
  the speed of the base for comparison. That is to say... If an AT index is
  2.0, then it is twice as fast as the PC in the overall performance.

  This is the strategy used by many utilities that measure performance, and
  they all agree within reason. So I have always used the SI program with
  my interpretation of its meaning.
