"BogoMips represents a processor's clock frequency as well as the potentially present CPU cache."

So a overclocked RPI should have another "Bogomipsvalue" than the straight one. My RPI running always with 900 MHz says also "2" wich could not thrue.

Wikipedia is not always correct.
shure, but it seems in case of bogomips very true

Quote:Bogomips is present in the kernel for calibrating delay loops. When using a delay loop, that number is proportional to clock frequency.
agree. Thats bogomips is for. You can compare the same type of cpu how much a different clock or cache will work.
Quote:When using a hardware timer for delays, it is proportional to the hardware timer frequency (which doesn't change with overclock).

so using a hardwaretimer isn't usable to get bogomips.

Quote:Bogomips is not designed for benchmarking processors.

its designed to measure the same processor under different conditions, f.e. to see, if the turbo switch (can anyone remember that :-)) will work or if overclocking will work.

This site listed some bogomips, all cpu's get other values than "2"
