Slightly slow? - 5140 Xeons

[phatcher]

I'm a bit surprised that my test result is so slow - 1253.8, seems to be let down by the CPU and RAM ratings which is odd as it's got 2 x 5140 Xeons i.e. 4 core @ 2.66

How do I post the values here so you can have a look - as an image?

regards

In V6.1 of PerformanceTest you can use the File / Export function to get a text file and then you can paste the result into a post.

I have the older generation Xeons (Dual CPUs, with HT to have 4 virtual CPUs), which had a higher clock rate but were less efficient than your newer Core 2 based Xeons.
