Interesting.
It would also be kinda cool to have some other data in terms of concurrency, you are stressing with 10 threads, but it would be interesting to see if the 64bit architecture handles load better or worse (don't know why, but it's another axis to consider that you haven't in your exercise).
yes, I know you might not care :-)
