Dual CPU Itanium II Results

Conclusion

The Linux Itanium II shows the expected results, with the optimum number of threads starting at about 10, and the minmal time approx. 0.33% (1/3) of the maximal value for one thread.
The BSD Itanium on the other hand shows a graph that is typical for systems under high load, FreeBSD is NOT 4 times slower than Linux. I've just included this result, because you might get similar ones and could draw the false conclusions from it.

PS: I'm adding a "real" graph for the dual Itanium II on FreeBSD soon.
