This is not what I see; for me and Pachi, i7 performs about 15% faster
than Core2 in single thread.  This is "Q9300 @ 2.50GHz" vs. "i7 920 @
2.67GHz" so the clock difference certainly is not the sole reason.

Pachi:

[i7]    2.3kpps
[core2] 1.9kpps

I also just did a quick test with latest libego:

[i7]
27.2497 kpps
10.2013 kpps/GHz (clock independent)

[core2]
23.043 kpps
9.26901 kpps/GHz (clock independent)

...and Erik's ancient libego build:

[i7]
Performance:
  1000000 playouts
  7.69283 seconds
  129.991 kpps

[core2]
Performance:
  1000000 playouts
  8.46945 seconds
  118.071 kpps
