Yes I also feel that the hyperthreading is a factor. Maybe up to a 33% factor. But thats why I'm testing so that we can all know whether to take that into account when deciding on a purchase. I expect the Xeon to outperform the MP2600+ on two threads alone. On 4 threads I am pretty sure it will far exceed the 2600.
