* Built and run on Linux (and, like Windows, built with the Intel C++ Compiler v9.1). This result may be different on a Windows installation.
¥ One core (or virtual processor) tested only (affinity mask set to allow running on only one core). This means that there is no performance boost caused by using both cores or virtual processors at once.

Legend:
     GREEN text indicates that the benchmark exceeded expectations.
     RED text indicates that the benchmark failed to meet expectations.
     GRAY text indicates that the benchmark met normal expectations.
