No numbers on the latest, no. However, I expect that the latest Intel chips
will do as well or better than AMD. In the long run, Intel has more & better
chip architects than AMD (some of whom they recently lured away from AMD) so
I'm expecting Intel to pull ahead now that they've realized they actually
need to compete.
While Sun inked a recent deal with Intel, none of those machines are actually
built yet for me to test.
