[PERFORM] Status of Opteron vs Xeon

[Jeff Frost]

What's the current status of how much faster the Opteron is compared to the 
Xeons?  I know the Opterons used to be close to 2x faster, but is that still 
the case?  I understand much work has been done to reduce the contect 
switching storms on the Xeon architecture, is this correct?
