Mikhail,
I am not sure I fully understand what you are presenting here, but I
might say that yes, at the FPU unit level the 2222 series AMD
Opteron/Barcelona and the Intel Core2/Clovertown (and also Harpertown
at 45 nm) are now more largely equivalent -- that is they both can
execute 2, double-wide (2x64 bit) floats in certain FMA situtations
simultaneously and/or in a pipeline.
....
Regards,
rbw

Sorry, now I'm misunderstanding :-)
I thought that Opteron 2222 don't have Barcelona microarchitecture
(all the Barcelona's are 23xx or 83xx) and therefore can't perform
4*64 bit FP results per cycle. Am I wrong ?
Mikhail
