Abstract
This paper compares an aggressive RISC and CISC implementation built with comparable technology. The two chips are the Alpha * 21164 and the Intel Pentium® Pro processor. The paper presents performance comparisons for industry standard benchmarks and uses performance counter statistics to compare various aspects of both designs.Keywords
