Here you go!

it is 2 CPU IBM 345, 2 years old,
database split in 4 database volumes over two raid-1 IBM-scsi arrays each, 
10kRPM.
Both disks share half of 2GB logfile (in normal mode) as well,
disk one shares operating system W2K as well and disk 2 shares one seldom used 
storage pool as well.
This might explain the big differencie among single results.
