Yeah, I'll test also for that (but its more by feeling, except if speed differences 
are very obvious though)

mouarf: I remembers those days (1998: I was in an electronics company that used a 
Unix Project Management Program & a windowing display in w95; I estimated the week 
loss of time to 4 minimum because of w$ stations failures & (mostly) w$ printing/gateway 
server failure; be aware that it leaves more freetime to go to the coffee machine...)

I made some researches upon such cases: most of the time the selected solution was
to buy one or more new powerful servers & migrate old PCs as workstations under
LTSP (with such a configuration, we where able to use stations as low as C333
with 64MB RAM in production)
