Ali, > SPECrates are not visible or sensible to general public

I was waiting for someone to mention this.

The two problems I have with SPECrate are:

a) The results are all over the place. Two similar systems can display widely varying results.

b) It's a poor correlation to real-world multithreading and multitasking. At least SPEC (not to be confused with SPECrate) is useful for microarchitectural analysis, especially when it comes to single-threaded IPC.
