SolutionOr more loosely how much computer you get for a dollar or unit of currency expended.
In PA-RISC to Intel comparisions, its common to say you get more "bang for your buck" More processing power for the same money. PA-RISC chips have less internal instructions so you get more work done with less clock cycles.
If I spend $10,000 on a server, and have two choices, one that will process 1.5 million records an hour another 1.2 million, i get more bang for my buck by buying the faster one.
My numeric examples are arbitrary, but hopefully I've made a point. If not, others will.

Re: bang per buck
The is slang for (power/goodness/throughput/speed) per dollar spent (1 USD = 1 "buck")
So a very fast, powerful but inexpensive machine is a good bang for the buck.

Re: bang per buck
Strange question.
"Biggest bang per buck" is used when we try to compare different items. For ex., if you look at http://tpc.org/tpch/results/tpch_perf_results.asp
in 3000GB Results section, you will find that HP Integrity Superdome can yield 45,247 trasactions per Hour costing $109 per hour. Whereas you can see that HP Proliant costs $93 but will do only 22,387 transactions.
So, HP Integrity superdome gives you the biggest bang per buck in that category.
