performing about twice as fast as on a comparable 32-bit CPU, although
some other tasks are clearly not yet optimized. The machines are
otherwise roughly identical. Here is a screenshot.

If anyone can think of other interesting benchmarks, be sure and let me
know while I have access to this Opteron machine. BTW,
Pymol
rocks on
the thing.
