Some Xeon Phi processors support four-way hyper-threading, effectively quadrupling the number of threads. [1] Before the Coffee Lake architecture, most Xeon and all desktop and mobile Core i3 and i7 supported hyper-threading while only dual-core mobile i5's supported it.
iCOMP for Intel Comparative Microprocessor Performance was an index published by Intel used to measure the relative performance of its microprocessors.. Intel was motivated to create the iCOMP rating by research which showed that many computer buyers assumed that the clock speed – the “MHz” rating – was indicative of performance, regardless of the processor type. iCOMP ratings based on ...
Instructions per second (IPS) is a measure of a computer's processor speed. For complex instruction set computers (CISCs), different instructions take different amounts of time, so the value measured depends on the instruction mix; even for comparing processors in the same family the IPS measurement can be problematic.

[citation needed] These processors were faster than Pentiums of the same speed in some benchmarks, so Cyrix gave them a Performance Rating faster than their clock speed. [3] Some AMD K5 models also use the PR system. AMD initially branded its AMD K6 processors with a "PR2" rating but dropped this after consumer confusion. [4]
As a very approximate guide, the BogoMips can be pre-calculated by the following table. The given rating is typical for that CPU with the then current and applicable Linux version. The index is the ratio of "BogoMips per clock speed" for any CPU to the same for an Intel 386DX CPU, for comparison purposes. [6] [7]

Keil also provides a somewhat newer summary of vendors of ARM based processors. [2] ARM further provides a chart [ 3 ] displaying an overview of the ARM processor lineup with performance and functionality versus capabilities for the more recent ARM core families.
