Dan3: You might be in for quite a surprise, since AMD can store more locations in 384K than Intel can in 512K due to AMD's shorter cache line and 20-way dual discrete cache architecture.

I'm well aware of the effect of cache associativity ;-)

I just don't think that will matter much for the vast majority of benchmarks.

(could well be different for server benchmarks, but that's not what reviewers run)
