... only two synthetic tests, the SiSoft Sandra 2002 CPU Bench and Multimedia Bench showed Hyper-Threading significantly improving performance (67% on CPU/Dhrystones, 16% on CPU/Whetstone, 49% on Multimedia Integer MMX, and 20% on FP SSE2). Conversely, the Sandra Memory benchmark showed performance with Hyper-Threading enabled taking a beating. It looks as if the real multithreaded applications used in the ... ...
