So I suppose the question I have to ask is what the f**k am I doing wrong on the
windows setup? I've always known that linux was faster, but 4 times faster on
the same hardware? My main development machine is giving 27.750 seconds which is
even nicer,

CPU-bound ops should be roughly the same speed on Windows and Linux since the
code is basically the same. If they're not I guess the best way would be to
profile it. File ops on windows are significantly slower because Windows FS is
slower than Linux one.
The difference can also be in compiler options - whci optimizations are chosen,
etc..

The x86 build of PHP is direct off the windows.php web site, and the Linux on is via SUSE package handler. When I get some time I will try a 'command line' run to avoid Apache and see if that is getting in the way.

The slower spec Vista box is running a bit faster than on Windows 7, but I need to update to 5.3.8 on that ... again I'll do an x86 install before the x64 and benchmark both if only for my own information. That machine needs updating to W7, but I still have a remote site that 'needs' vista to access it's VPN software :(
