$ sysctl hw.model
hw.model = Intel Pentium II ("GenuineIntel" 686-class, 512KB L2 cache)

There's no CPU speed in there.

$ sysctl hw.model
hw.model = Digital Personal WorkStation 600au

Looks more like it, but that one still claims to be $ dmesg | grep MHz
Digital Personal WorkStation 600au, 598MHz

I have no idea what you might want to use this info for, if your CPU isn't powerful enough to run ${FOO}, you'll notice when trying ;)

Cheers,
