You guys might want to take a look at the performance test Matthias Troyer and I developed for the parameter library. Matthias is an expert in high-performance computing and knows how to correct for some of those effects.

There are other issues you might want to consider, like pipeline length. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
