Re: as you saw from the author's "Second Pass" results, a single Prestonia blows away a single Athlon MP/XP. A single Prestonia processor even comes close to two Athlon MP processors in performance. From the description of "second pass results": I just disabled the multi-threaded test option. By unchecking this, Sandra now just runs 2 test threads for each benchmark thereby allowing one thread to use each physical processor Second Pass used two physical Prestonia Xeons - so you were mistaken. Or to use the Paul/wanna_bmw/elmer style of posting: *LYING!! AGAIN!!* Those test used two Athlons and two Hyperthreading Xeons - as was clearly shown by the perf monitor screen capture indicating 4 CPUs.
