Dan, Re: "Which makes that SPEC suite a test of whose compiler can best spot and substitute out the known "booby traps" in the SPEC code rather than a measure of processor or system performnace."

And AMD uses Intel's compiler in the SPEC benchmarks. Logic should tell you that AMD would then be avoiding the same booby-traps. None-the-less, the compiler was built for optimizing around the Pentium 4, so I would expect the Pentium 4 to win. You can expect the same for other applications as Intel's compiler gets more finely tuned.
