Elmer, but in the Hyperthreading and Web apps benchmark, the advantage of HTh drops to 20% as the server becomes fully loaded (100 users).

Yes you're right. Only 20% improvement for free. I should have realized that that by comparison, the XPs performance actually improves with more users...

BTW, you haven't seen hyperythreading with a large L2 yet...

Still 20% is a pretty nice performance gain. But I wonder if it goes down more if you increase the user count even more. Also its only one benchmark.
