Multi-Threaded Integer Performance

While compression and decompression are not real world benchmarks (at least as far as servers go), more and more servers have to perform these tasks as part of a larger role (e.g. database compression, website optimization). Let's now enable multi-threaded workloads and see what happens.

LZMA Compression

LZMA decompression

There are no surprises here: the extra cores offer the expected performance boost.

    Oh, nevermind... I unknowingly caught an error.

    thx! Fixed. Sorry for the late reaction, jetlagged and trying to get to the hectic pace of IDF :-)

    As long as AMD continues it's idiotic two integer units sharing an fpu design they will be an afterthought in the cpu department.

    Serious competition for Intel will not come from AMD any time soon, but possibly IBM with the POWER8, Tyan even came out with a single socket board for that CPU so it might make it's way into the same market soon.

    Any feel for the relative HPC performance of the E5-2680v3 with respect to the E5-2650Lv3? I am looking at purchasing a PowerEdge 730 with two of these and the 2133MHz RAM. My guess is that the higher base clock speed should make somewhat of an improvement?
