Interestingly, while people seem to be (arguably rightly) focused on criticising Phoronix's benchmarking, nobody has offered an alternative benchmark; and while (again, arguably rightly) it is important to benchmark real world performance, equally, nobody has offered any numbers in relation to, for example, HTTP or SMTP, or any other "real world"-application torture tests done on the aforementioned two platforms... IMO, this just goes to show that "doing is hard" and "criticising is much easier" (yes, I am aware of the irony involved in making this statement, but someone has to!)
