I am the maintainer of the port, and I already added a message to post-install (together with an update to the latest icc version). It would be nice if you could send me the results of benchmarks (if permitted by your employer). Don't expect the multithreading to have a significant positive impact. A local computer magazin (http://www.heise.de/iX/) played a little bit around with it and the result was, that it isn't good for the kernel scheduler (better performance without multithreading). But it improves code with mixed integer/floating-point instructions (good speed improvements (+75%) if you run integer and floating-point code in parallel). Bye, Alexander. -- Actually, Microsoft is sort of a mixture between the Borg and the Ferengi. http://www.Leidinger.net Alexander @ Leidinger.net GPG fingerprint = C518 BC70 E67F 143F BE91 3365 79E2 9C60 B006 3FE7 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
