It would be interesting to compare computation speeds of various
computers for the same antenna. One possible antenna to use for
comparison is The Grid Yagi from my website:

My three year old Dell with a Pentium 4 2.8GHz with HT and 3GB DDR of
RAM at 400MHz using the Nec2dXS*.exe calculating machine gives:
- - - MATRIX TIMING - - -FILL= 12.469 SEC., FACTOR= 11.422 SEC.
I'm interested to see how this compares to more modern computers.

FILL= 14.641 SEC., FACTOR= 16.734 SEC., RUN TIME = 31.641

On a 2.4 Ghz Pentium 4, single processor 512 Mb, Windows 2000, and Yes,
a Dell.
