Since the report of 3888.9% performance improvement made it not only to Phoronix (no surprises there) but is now also the subject of at least two youtube videos, where one has 212k views at this point (just wow), I've decided to explain in some detail why the benchmark is in this context completely bogus, and that people missed the very same report also contains a 9% regression in another benchmark (which may be actually less bogus :)
Hope someone finds this useful. http://lore.kernel.org/all/3b09bf98-9bd4-465b-b9c5-5483a6261dc7%40suse.cz
