Paul, how many times you will repeat your wrong assessment about Stream benchmark? I told you that the STREAM is so-called "synthetic" benchmark. What it does is a sequential writting of zeros to large memory area, that's about it. In real applications this operation is in use only for a tiny fraction of total application run time. Zillions of other code patterns usually use more complex memory addressing, and show NO PERFORMANCE GAIN, even some are slower. Therefore, the overall performance of real business applications is not improved at all. Please stop your bulk BS postings, at least on this thread. Thank you.
