That's interesting.  Can you run the powerpc Debian maxima .deb binary
and your build on the same hardware?  I'd be interested if the timing
results were very different. 

The Debian ppc autobuilder gives the following for its maxima timings:


real time : 21.380 secs
run time  : 19.430 secs


cat /proc/cpuinfo
processor       : 0
cpu             : 7400, altivec supported
temperature     : 27-29 C (uncalibrated)
clock           : 500MHz
revision        : 2.9 (pvr 000c 0209)
bogomips        : 992.87

processor       : 1
cpu             : 7400, altivec supported

revision        : 2.9 (pvr 000c 0209)
