What is the background noise on the CPU load in the VMWare environments? Are 
all the CPUs running at the same spare capcity, and the same/similar CPU 
utilisation during the tests, or are tasks running in the background, system 
updates etc.. on the Linuxes that's eating resources?

Cheers,

Euan.

You're benching different Mono versions. Mono 2.4 was branched

in January, whereas r140059 is pretty up-to-date.


 Besides, while measuring Dictionary<T, K> performance has some relation to 
actual program performance, I doubt whether anyone will call 
IPAdress.ToString() often enough to even notice the speed difference...
