No set of benchmarks would be complete without some Sandra scores would it? The Duron performs about what we would expect from it, please keep in mind that for the memory tests the FSB is running at 144 MHz.

POVRay	Source: POVRay.org

The Persistence of Vision Ray Tracer (POV-Ray) is an all round excellent package, but there are two things that particularly make it stand out above the rest of the crowd. Firstly, it's free, and secondly, the source is distributed so you can compile it on virtually any platform.

Lower numbers denote faster calculation times (seconds), and hence, better performance.

	Processor	seconds	Ranking
1.	1 GHz Duron 10x100 MHz	237 sec
2.	1.44 GHz Duron 10x144 MHz	222 sec

It seems here that the L2 cache helps a bit since the numbers that the Duron gets are quite a bit higher then our AthlonXP 2100+ .

SuperPI	Source: SuperPI

SuperPI calculates the number PI to 1 Million digits in this raw number crunching benchmark. The benchmark is fairly diverse and allows the user to change the number of digits of PI that can be calculated from 16 Thousand to 32 Million. The benchmark, which uses 19 iterations in the test, is set 1 Million digits.

Lower numbers denote faster calculation times (seconds), and hence, better performance.

	Processor	seconds	Ranking
1.	1 GHz Duron 10x100 MHz	88 sec
2.	1.44 GHz Duron 10x144 MHz	73 sec

Super Pi is a pure FPU benchmark and as we can see the Duron does very well here. With a powerful FPU, the Duron even at stock speeds calculates faster then a Pentium 4 2 GHz
