Scaling is very good though! But without Barcelona results included there isnt a lot to discuss about IMO. Power consumption is pretty clear, but what about IPC improvements? Scaling improvements?

It's a shame nowadays reviews still ain't as good as they should be.

seems like Barcelona to Shanghai got ~the same increase in IPC as Kentsfield to Yorkfield.

Cause if we look at phenom vs. kentsfield, Phenom was avg. ~5% slower then
Kentsfield.

Now it seems Shangai is avg. ~5% slower then Yorkfield.
