True. CPU intensive applications has likely moved off VMS
years ago. So some selection in who is left.

My point was that I expect the majority of VMS sites to run
applications originally developed more than 25 years ago.

Some of them may have added CPU demanding extensions along
the way. But a lot of them would run damn fast even on
low end CPU's of today.
