Re: "At the presentation, Jim Wilson (Intel guy) said that the tests were run with SSE optimizations. My guess that only the cache-streaming operations were used, not the SIMD instructions. Cache-streaming can be supported in the compiler without any specific attention from the programmer, while SIMD requires specific coding."

So you are saying the SpecFP95 scores improved from ~16 for a 600MHz PIII to ~25 for 600MHz CuMine without the use of SIMD instructions? That's a 56% improvement. Is that correct????
