With only 8 instruction TLB's and 8 data TLB's isn't the MPC823/850
going to spend an excesive amount servicing TLB faults ???
(With a 4K page size you only have access to 64K of memory without
 faulting)

Simply typing "cat /proc/ppc_htab" successively on the console shows
900-2000 misses just for execting that cat command.
