Nice numbers and nice machine. Must have set you back a bit. ;-)
It seems when I match up exact revisions you're getting something
between a 10-15% speed increase. Quite nice.
Do we know that the amount code compiled is identical? I imagine
everything you show is correct since the speed increase is pretty
consistent from app to app.
Great stuff. Thanks.
Cheers,
Mark
