I've been trying to track down some DDR to borrow for this purpose, but
having a hard time convincing anyone to lend me their system ram for "just a
couple hours," so I'd be very grateful if you could post your results
whenever you do get a chance to try it.

I've found similar performance with an Athlon XP2000+ and 512Mb of PC133
on a Soyo K7S5A.  I'll be trying some DDR memory wen I have a chance to
pull some from another machine I have.
