Can someone point me to a web page that has benchmarks for a bunch of
intel procs? I want to see a comparison of:

Core duo Mobile 2ghz

vs

p4 2.8 w/ht

thanks

If the exact processors were here, I would have quoted this earlier.
Only some of the benchmarks on this page are scalable, meaning using
simple ratios, you can compute results for intermediate data points.
Half way between a E6400 and a E6320, is roughly your processor.
About 18200 or so points for integer. Dividing by 2 gives 9100 points.
The P4 2.8 model 520 is 6769. A 2GHz Core2 duo core, is about 1.34x
the other processor. I don't know if Hyperthreading was used or not,
and in some cases Hyperthreading actually works against getting good
results.

The floating point is not as convincing.

Scaling the results for the other benchmarks, might not be as easy.

Thanks, but my question was about Core Duo Mobile, not Core 2 Duo.
(Notice the "mobile" and the absence of the "2"). That would be the
yonah, not allendale or conroe. But thanks anyway.

You'll likely need to find a couple articles, that happen to use the
same benchmark. I doubt those processors would be compared head to
head in the same review. Cure Duo T2500 2GHz does the Photoshop 7.0.1
benchmark in 319 seconds.

Worldbench 5 Photoshop 7.0.1 subsection results are also plotted here.
The slowest processor is a P4 model 530 at the bottom of the graph, at
439 seconds. That 530 might have 1MB cache. The 630 above it, at
395 seconds execution time, has 2MB cache. You quoted a 2.8Ghz P4,
and that could have 512KB or 1MB of cache, depending on exactly
which 2.8GHz processor it is. I would say, at the very least, the
T2600 is 439/319 or 1.37x faster, on that particular memory intensive
kind of benchmark.

In terms of the quality of the experience, execution speed is only
one aspect. Sometimes, a single core without Hyperthreading, tends
to have the odd glitch or delay in the desktop. While the T2600 is
faster, it might not be quite as smooth, when it comes to operation
of the desktop. I've noticed this when comparing my AthlonXP machine
to my P4 with Hyperthreading machine. The P4 is smoother. Presumably
this is an artifact of Windows design, and not something you see
everywhere.
