Your testing is very interesting.

How about running the exact same tests with hyperthreading turned OFF?

So you'll have 4 results on the exact same hardware
	single - with hyperthreading
	double - with hyperthreading
	single - no hyperthreading
	double - no hyperthreading

It would be interesting to see the difference between the hyperthreading 
and non-hyperthreading results.

This might help show what you have found through your testing.
