But how do those results stack up against a modern MacBook? As a comparison point, we used a modern ARM-based [M3 Max MacBook Pro](https://everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook_pro/specs/macbook-pro-m3-max-16-core-cpu-40-core-gpu-14-late-2023-specs.html), which happened to be sitting on the same desk. But between them, the two MacBooks represent more than a decade of hardware development.

Looking at [GeekBench 5 benchmark scores](https://everymac.com/ultimate-mac-comparison-chart/?compare=all-macs&highlight=0&prod1=MacBookPro159&prod2=MacBookPro063&prod3=) alone, we see a ca. 7x difference in raw CPU speed when using all cores, and ca. factor 3 difference in single-core speed. Of course there are also big differences in RAM and SSD speeds. Funnily, the display size and resolution are almost unchanged.

We do see significant speedups, between 7 up to as much as 53. The [geometric mean](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_mean) of the timings improved from 218 to 12, a ca. 20x improvement.
