Greetings,
In the competition for 4-way performance, IBM xSeries 366 with X3
architecture and 3.66MHz Xeons is bested only by a P5 entry from IBM
and an Itanium entry from HP:

Filter for 4-way systems and sort on tpmc.
HP's most competitive x86 entry is Opteron, with about 80% of the
performance of the xSeries 366. Whatever the debilities of the
off-chip memory controller and NetBurst, IBM seems to have overcome
them for this benchmark.
