Fyo,

There have been some indications that Intel would be doubling much of the front end for HyperThreading. This would not only explain the high benchmark increases, but also the abnormally large amount of "dark" transistors reported in the P4 (Willamette).

I am not sure if you are talking about past tense or future? I am confused. I doubt that the front end was doubled (decoder / trace cache) from Willy to NW. Intel is reporting strong benchmark gains from hyperthreading, but no one else is, and the CPU in question was introduced yesterday.
