Hello, first post, here it goes,

Pardon the interruption folks,(I did search the forums, came up empty) but a quick question about the benchmark results displayed on the "Computer Summary" page.
For the "measures floating point speed" and "measured integer speed" do those numbers relate to a single core CPU? i.e.: I have one P4 HT machine. The Summary page shows two processors, but the results on FLOPS and Integer are less than the AMD Athlon Mobile 64/3000 machine I also have. So I'm thinking that the benchmark FLOP=1306.63 million ops/sec and Integer=1598.36 million ops/sec should be doubled to give me the combined benchmark for the P4HT proc as a whole.
O Great Forum Monks, what say ye..

Hi Paul,

although I am at best a novice and far from wise or great: Yes, it refers to one single core. So you have to multiply with the number of cores/cpus to get the overall performance of your machine.

Christoph
