I was told
that on the mvme6100, "MBLT performance is similar to
what the universe's".  However, I do not really have any
experience on the mvme6100 yet.  Thus, the above statement
could be wrong.  I would appreciate if any experienced
expert on the mvme6100 can verify this statement.

I'm not speaking from any experience here, but I see no reason to doubt the accuracy of that statement - the performance of almost all VME I/O operations is going to be limited by the requirements of the VMEbus specification nowadays, not by the design of the interface chips, which are so much faster than in the early days of the VMEbus. Both the Universe and Tempe chips were designed by Tundra, so I doubt there's any chance the Tempe would be slower.
