I am currently writing an article on problems with Intel's chips
when running programs written in high level languages(read c).
I would appreciate any benchmarks(source and timings) comparing
small and large model, comparing other processors, and showing
the actually assembly language generated in the compilation process.
I am mainly focusing on the C language both other examples will
also be appreciated.  

I would also appreciate any feedback on how to get around these 
performance problems when porting a large c coded application to
a pc environment.  My objective is to use the same source code
with a few #defines and #ifdefs to speed up the program. Also
global changes that can be used on many systems(micro/mini/mainframe)
are appreciated.
