SpecInt correlates well with majority of the commercial apps, server and client oriented, including the most commercial server app - database servers.

are *very* different in nature. Every architectural performance
analysis paper for x86, RISC, or IPC chips I have ever seen
shows this clearly.
have hard time imagining the power going up 3x. As far as cost (silicon cost), again, Dothan has somewhere around 3x advantage today.
Montecito has a 100W TDP with *two* CPUs. How much do
you figure a dual Dothan with 6.4 GB/s system bus and full
blown RAS capability would burn at 2.3 GHz?
