Yes. And I have run them on more than one machine and obtained the same 
results.

I also found a bug in the SciGMark code, specifically the C++ was printing the 
wrong score for the MultPoly test.

You are cherry picking one set of results from one machine that are dominated 
by one test (LU). That is bad science.

I've Googled for SciMark benchmark results on similar hardware and everything 
indicates that my results are perfectly representative.

You never described your machine and operating system precisely. Are you 
comparing the JVM running on 64-bit Mac OS X with the CLR running in emulated 
32-bit Windows?
