BTW that was my home desktop. I just noticed that my work desktop gives out significantly different results. vendor_id : GenuineIntel cpu family : 6 model : 15 model name : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU 6700 @ 2.66GHz stepping : 6 cpu MHz : 2667.000 cycles: out 4263, in 2487 cpu MHz : 1600.000 cycles: out 4391, in 2623 There seems to be more variation in the results between runs on this system too. I suppose the difference must be up to the chipset.
