To be fair, the Source of the benchmarks is Intel itself, aka the one place you should not take the numbers from due to conflict of interest, no matter if they actually are accurate or not.

It doesn't help that during this whole thing, Intel behaved very much like the Iraqi propaganda minister. If they had been a bit more honest from the start, maybe I'd be keener to take their numbers at face value.

Yeah — e.g. ARM were so upfront about their exposure that if they'd posted this I wouldn't even blink.

There was a time I would have just taken Intel's word for it but sadly times have changed.
