The page you gave was Winstone/Content Creation benchmarks.  Sure, those depend
quite a lot on memory bandwidth, but they are not valid for any kind of 'memory
performance comparison', because there are too many other factors (esp. CPU
speed).  The page I linked has actual memory bandwidth/latency/etc. tests.
