I was playing with pveperf and noticed that the regexp number of the Sempron 140 ($20) are way better than the regexp of a dual xeon 5405 ($400+)... Why is this?

Code:
Sempron 140 (single core):
--------------------------------

CPU BOGOMIPS:      5399.78
REGEX/SECOND:      835499
HD SIZE:           7.87 GB (/dev/mapper/pve-root)
BUFFERED READS:    73.45 MB/sec
AVERAGE SEEK TIME: 8.41 ms
FSYNCS/SECOND:     120.63
DNS EXT:           149.21 ms
DNS INT:           105.96 ms (xxx)

Dual Xeon E5405 (8 cores)
-------------------------------

CPU BOGOMIPS:      31920.11
REGEX/SECOND:      655084
HD SIZE:           14.76 GB (/dev/mapper/pve-root)
BUFFERED READS:    109.29 MB/sec
AVERAGE SEEK TIME: 13.40 ms
FSYNCS/SECOND:     80.98
DNS EXT:           53.46 ms
DNS INT:           653.53 ms (xxx)
Beats me... the sempron is a little test unit and it's also running a win2008R2 install with exchange while running pveperf. The Xeons are in the data center and they're idle.

Perhaps pveperf is using a single thread/core?
