I have data for the 13 applications constituting the SPEC MPIM2007 (http://www.spec.org/mpi2007 
) suite, using PathScale 3.0, 3.1, Intel 9.1, and 10.1. This on the  
same hardware and software configuration.

Most of these results have been reviewed and published by SPEC, but  
some of them have been marked Non Compliant due to use of an (from  
SPEC's perspective) illegal command line switch.

I can supply the data to anyone interested, under the terms that they  
are considered an estimate, as per SPEC MPI2007 Run and Reporting rules.



Thanks, Håkon
