The focus should be moved from "100% scaling" vs. "122% scaling" (surely meant ironically) to something like 60% vs. 80%. Then all people here should be happy As we all know, one type of CPU in a multi CPU setup is hampered more by FSB, inter core traffic and mem BW than another type of CPU with its direct connection links, a cache shared by 4 cores and so on..

Will a car run twice as fast by doubling the number of cylinders?
