Here's a 4 core Woodcrest system with 4 sticks of 2 GB 667 MHz FB-dimms:

This was a pathscale compiled stream executable with openmp using 4 threads.

kinda sucks, doesn't it? here's what I get for a not-new dual-275 with 8x1G PC3200 (I think):

Bill and I passed a few emails off the list and it seems that he's heard reports of up to 10 GB/s. I tried on 2 different Woodcrest systems (one from Dell, one directly from Intel) here and they both report back similar numbers. It seems that the fortran version of the program with pathscale 2.3 (the numbers I reported above) reports different numbers than the C version of the program with pathscale 2.3:

Function      Rate (MB/s)   Avg time     Min time     Max time
Copy:        6129.2441       0.2090       0.2088       0.2097
Scale:       6138.1509       0.2087       0.2085       0.2091

Triad:       5972.4347       0.3217       0.3215       0.3221

and the C version with Intel 9.1:

Function      Rate (MB/s)   Avg time     Min time     Max time
Copy:        6145.6340       0.2084       0.2083       0.2090
