Even including M2 Ultra in that comparison is a bit unfair. That's a HEDT workstation CPU. The competition for this is a Threadripper.


If you include a Threadripper:

      376.6 Klines/sec Threadripper 7970X (32 cores)


Wouldn't you want to go all the way with a 7990X (64 cores) ?

I know the 7970X is more affordable but this is for a benchmark!


I do think the compilation benchmark breaks down, as seen with the 96-core CPU:

    406.2 Klines/sec 7995WX
3x the cores but only slightly faster (8%).

Also 32-core threadripper machines seem to be in the price range of M2 Ultra machines.

[Edit] I found a 491.5 klines/sec result for the 7985WX
