RS/6000 Performance Comparison

[Dick Gill]

I have a question regarding the relative performance of model
320 vs model 520.  Since they both use the same processor, I
have (naively?) assumed that similarly configured systems in
terms of RAM, hard disc, etc. would perform similarly.

Not so, according to second-hand stories I hear from the field,
where THEY say that 320 performance is weak while the 520 is a
strong performer.

Can anyone shed the light of real experience on this question?

Thanks.
