In case you're interested, I ran it on a dual p4 xeon (without  
HyperThreading) from the netperf cluster, to compare the performance  
of RELENG_5, RELENG_6 and HEAD.
You can find the results at http://people.freebsd.org/~ssouhlal/stuff/ 
compare_tiger-3.html .
It shows that RELENG_6 and HEAD are (in these tests) almost never  
slower than RELENG_5, and often more than 20% faster.
