This actually worked for me on a recent quad-core amd with Ubuntu 10.04. My sunspider bench scores on Google chrome 8.x shot up by 30%, IIRC. This was a couple of weeks ago.

It seemed like the CPU graph seemed to show higher cpu utilization line-trace for the core that was running the benchmarking Chrome process.

That's my layman observation after the patch.
