[sdiy] Small MCU MIPS, DMIPS?

[karl dalen]

MIPS are a valuable sales tool for the sales people, engineers
however knows its just sales blabbering yet its still used?

MIPS = ????
Misleading indicator of processor speed 
Meaningless indicator of processor speed 
Marketing indicator of processor speed 
Managements impression of processor speed

Now...?...huumm.... i have forgot what i was supposed to ask?
It was something about dsPIC STM32 and real figures and
something..else...?! Ah!!, yes interrupt....something!?
wait states, flash not able to run at 72Mhz....or what,
else, if! Ah, yes dsPIC being faster then STM32 due to
dual port RAM for routines using DMA....or so when...if?!

Never mind.
