The VIA C3 chips have very poor performance on heavy calculation or data
set manipulation operations - I have found a C3-800 to be horrifically
slow on Seti crunching as well..
I guess these Via PC systems have their uses - and this isn't one of
them!

Subject: [ukha_d] Skype - VIA CPU
Tried Skype on beside system last night and it was rubbish. Turned out
that
the VIA500 CPU was running at 100%. Changed to the old P3-900 laptop
and
CPU usage was around 30% and quality was back to normal.
Strange that an iPAQ has enough horsepower but not the VIA.
