Dan, Re: My guess is that one consideration is that his runs resulted in scores substantially lower than Intel's published scores.

With the 4.0 compiler probably. C't benched a 1.5 GHz P4 with both version 4.0 and 5.0 of Intel's compiler in SPECfp2000 and got 403 with 4.0 and 502 with 5.0 (both scores are base). This is a very impressive 25%(!) increase but still 10% below Intel's published numbers. Also note that a 1.2 GHz Athlon with Compaq's newest compiler is almost as fast (ca. 370) as a 1.5 Pentium 4 with Intel's 4.0 compiler in SPECfp.
