published Benchmark Results - Office Application Performance
As usual we start with BAPCo's Sysmark2000. Duron makes a good figure here. It's just a tad slower than its father, the Athlon Classic, at the same clock speed. Intel's Celeron is left far behind Duron, which gets rather close to the results of Pentium III. You can also see the performance gap between Thunderbird and Athlon Classic.
