RE:"The only time it runs at the advertised frequency is if a previously cached instruction is available in the trace cache."

Do you know if they will double the trace cache when they enable the Multithreading? Otherwise for each thread they will have half the space it had in single threading.

People at BabCo will have too work harder to find routine fitting in half the trace cache!

Dan, <It runs program code at half the advertised frequency. The only time it runs at the advertised frequency is if a previously cached instruction is available in the trace cache.>

The sad thing is that some people actually believe you. Next you'll claim that an Athlon XP 1800+ actually runs at 1800 MHz.
