I have shipped a NUMA version of diep to them that can go up to 4 cpu's. So that's interesting to see how it does. Johan is very good in testing. also he does not cheat. some other sites that tested diep in the past cheated. when the production version of those machines was released and i tested with same executable, it appeared that intel had cheated by 5% in speed. Also the speedup from SMT they had with diep was higher than when some others who had purchased dual Xeons, could not get to. www.aceshardware.com doesn't do that. Johan is a very objective testers. His main intention is to figure out how much the added branch prediction table will do for DIEP. P3 has 512 entries BTB (branch target buffer) K7 has 2048 entries BPT (branch prediction table) opteron/amd64 has 16384. Intel runs behind for complex software.
