Re: You think Intel is somehow obligated to provide AMD with a compiler to make the Athlon look good!! .. No, absolutely not. But when running the same code, Athlon outscores Coppermine. I won't argue that Intel doesn't have the best compiler technology for SPEC, but I will argue that its processors are slower - do you see the difference? The complaint regarding your claims isn't that Intel's pre-fetch compiler is unfair, the issue is that comparing scores from two very different compilers isn't meaningful - it shows the difference between the compilers, not the processors.
