K10 Scores starting to surface

[adamsleath]

does not this indicate that performance increase is non linear and that (as i thought) scaling gives diminishing returns...?
ie once you reach the shallower part of the curve.
ie performance increase starts off sharp then plataeus. - such that higher and higher clocks give less and less performance increase delta.... for a given core at speeds plotted on the graph.

it is a parabolic curve (i think)

and it is a long time since i did school mathematics.

the scaling is NOT linear. - extrapolating beyond 3500(speed) in this example yields negligible performance returns; indeed the difference between 2500 and 3500 is s. f. a.
