The graphs below show the performance boost
from installing MathLibMoto or Motorola's LibMotoSh extension.
These extensions are shared libraries that updates several
functions from Apple's MathLib. In MacBench tests this increased
FPU performance overall. Performance of individual math functions
may be greater than this. Testing was done using MacBench
4.0 on system 8.1. MacBench profiles popular software
programs such as Adobe Photoshop, Word 6.0 and QuarkXpress
among a variety of others and applies these profiles to the
various subsystems being tested. See this description
of what MacBench tests and how. Longer bars equals faster
performance
Floating Point performance improvement of of OS 8.1 over
8.0
Extra FPU performance boost that comes from using one of
the enhanced versions of the shared math libraries
