Greetings, I have this Intel CPU, and I would like to know if there's a way to increase the number of bogomips. Thanks in advance.

* Buy a faster CPU
* Patch the kernel to compute them in a different way (which, in the end, won't give you any advantage, but might be harmfull).

It seems you do not know what bogomips is - you should have a look at http://www.clifton.nl/index.html?bogomips.html.

Bogo" comes from "bogus", i.e, something which is a fake. Hence, the BogoMips value gives some indication of the processor speed, but it is way too unscientific to be called anything but BogoMips.
