Of course, the good FP performance is dependent on compiling for SSE2; Intel has given warnings about x87 FP > being deprecated, so it won't exactly be a surprise if "legacy" FP performance is problematic too. Legacy FP is > here defined as not optimized for SSE2, and thus runnable on a few hundred million PCs, vs. maybe runnable on a few > hundred thousand PCs by the end of the year for SSE2 optimized apps. Dan, another thing to keep in mind is that specfp is very memory intensive. The extra memory/chipset bandwidth, I imagine, would be of a tremendous benefit to this benchmark.
