Joe, Re: IA-32 EL? Is that the official name for x86 software emulation? Has it been released and benchmarked?

Yes and yes. It is available for download for either Windows or Linux, and it benchmarks favorably against a Xeon processor of similar clock speed. Tests indicated that a 1.5GHz Itanium 2 had somewhat greater SPECint and somewhat lesser SPECfp than a 1.6GHz Xeon processor (presumably Prestonia based, i.e. 400MT/s, 512KB L2 cache, 0 L3). The software also ran SysMark as well as the Xeon processor, though I don't remember the exact relative score.

That's no speed demon, but it's plenty fast to run utilities and tools where performance is not an issue.
