Dan, <So, the speed at which a system is able to complete software tasks isn't what's being benchmarked?>

Did I say that?

It's no secret that Pentium 4 requires software optimizations for maximum performance. HyperThreading takes that one step further, as threads will need to be optimized for SMT.

But given that the AMDrhoids think recompiling software is a no-no, they'll have a fit over benchmarks optimized for HyperThreading. That's what I was talking about.
