General Notes
All benchmarks compiled in 32-bit mode except 401.bzip2, 456.hmmer, for peak, are compiled in 64-bit mode The NEC Express5800/120Rh-1(Intel Xeon X5450), the NEC Express5800/120Rj-2(Intel Xeon X5450), the Bull NovaScale R440 E1 (Intel Xeon X5450,3.00GHz) and the Bull NovaScale R460 E1 (Intel Xeon X5450,3.00GHz) models are electronically equivalent. The results have been measured on a NEC Express5800/120Rj-2(Intel Xeon X5450) model.
