Are you worried that the 'rumors?' of > better, more optimized binaries going to hurt the AMD effort? Binaries that wouldn't run on a huge porition of our userbase isn't 'optimized' in my book. If Intel had the better performance they'd be WANTING you to run 'icc' produced binaries on AMD to show how much better Intel performs. That isn't the case, so they fixed it so you can't directly compare. -- -- David (obrien@FreeBSD.org)
