Dear Paul:

Have you tried the x86-64 emulator yet? Perhaps that is the route you could use to estimate performance. AMD does make it available for public consumption. Why didn't Intel do the same for Itanium?

Besides, the Itanium has to compete with several competing 64 bit RISC chips. The Alpha even has x86 emulation using something similar in design to trace cache but implemented far differently. If it came out 3 years ago at the published speeds it could have a chance, now it is severely less desirable.
