That McKinley blows away the 21264 for me *bigtime*. Very impressive for a 2nd version of the Itanium. Can't wait to see how the I3 is going to be. If such processors get SMT on chip it is going to be perhaps really very well performing. Imagine they make it 4 threads a cpu. In which case i could run at a 128 processor partition already like 500 processes easily!!
