It ran on my PowerMac 7100 with OS 8.something (it died long ago), and I'm pretty sure it's a screensaver. I think it had something like 3D Enabled in the name, it had music and when it starts it shows the program's logo and cluster of sparking stars that were moving around. Then the screen looked like water puddle with rainfall rings.
After the intro ended, it just shows inside of a sphere in 3D with camera panning around the center object that looked like abstract sculpture of something like a few snakes twisted together. This 3D flying around is endless until someone wakes the Mac.

It can be, but timing issues often negate any theoretical increased speed you get by increasing the bus:CPU ratio.
I operated my 266 MHz Rev A w/ a 70 Mhz bus & 315 MHz CPU for years with no ill effects. I never did any formal benchmarking to see if it was actually faster in that configuration, though.
Rev A boards with the 89 MHz MPC106 bridge chip you can sometimes clock up to 89 MHz on the system bus (of course, you'll need PC100 RAM)... Mine is unstable (long story - the whole board has problems no matter what speed it runs at), so I can't demonstrate that at the moment.
Peace,
Drew
