i threw them into excel and heres the results: (results are a percentage of the i7 920)

Int
Single: 93%
Multi: 134%

Float
Single: 95% (one was 160%, most around 80% though)
Multi: 132%

the Memory ones are all single and avearge 98%
There is something interesting here. For some FP test the perf delta between single-threaded to multi-threaded is about 6x-7x. Which mean that, even if we assume an equal turbo for 1 to 4 cores, HT efficiency is reaching 50-85% on a threads with an equal code. Thats very strange.
