Thank you, I can run off and do some more tests with this information.
 I think the culprit on my development machine is that Xcode needs to
be upgraded and then I can use -mtune=core2.  I have one small
follow-up question.  I thought the compilation flags for building
src/extra/blas had changed from version 2.12.0 to 2.11.1.  But you
suggest maybe they haven't changed?

I did try ATLAS and did not see performance improvements.  But that
attempt was without -mtune=core2.
