It seems most likely to me the difference will be found in the processor, or perhaps its firmware. The box is from Gigabyte but it's configured for reliability, not speed. The work-in-process cookbook I've been putting together will walk you through what was being done with screenshots in case that is useful information. I put the current document snapshot up for this bug. You can download the 35 MB tarball from http://dlc.casita.net/~dlc/762146/vp9cb-20140921.tar or just click through the HTML by going to http://dlc.casita.net/~dlc/762146/vp9cb/index.html and see what happened in subsection 2-3. Let me know if there is a specific test case you want me to exercise and I'll do my best to get you the data. -- <not cent from sell> May the LORD God bless you exceedingly abundantly!
