Re: "I"m curious how much the faster L2 cache, and I guess the "other" stuff Intel has added, will improve the Xeon's performance."

Well I'm only guessing of course, but Intel will probably extend the databus to the cache to at least 128 bits, and with full speed access that's at least 4x the bandwidth, maybe more. Add to that lower latency and whatever other "enhancements" they might do and it could be significant. But what do I know? People here think I am just spreading BS.
