[. . . ] IBM posts SPEC CPU2000 and CPU2006 scores for dual-core BladeCenter HS21 XM blade February 13, 2007 . . . [. . . ] These results were achieved using Microsoft® Windows® Server 2003 (32-bit). The scores in the following tables are the first SPEC CPU2000 and SPEC CPU2006 results published for the HS21 XM blade models using the Dual-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor 5160 (3. 00GHz, 4MB L2 cache, 1333MHz FSB).

Since then, advances in technology and the resulting improvements in hardware and software have made it necessary to ensure that the benchmarks are also improved so that they keep pace. SPEC CPU2006 is designed to measure more technologically advanced systems; hence, these results should not be compared with CPU2000 results. The scores have been submitted to SPEC for review and will be posted on their Web site upon successful completion of the review.
