You probably mean when comparing against AMD CPUs without XOP?

I am not seeing better results on Intel CPUs than what I get on AMD with
XOP.  For example, here's what I am getting on "Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU
E31230 @ 3.20GHz" (Sandy Bridge, but without AVX), apparently at 3.3 GHz,
gcc 4.6.2:

Benchmarking: Raw SHA-1 (pwlen <= 15) [128/128 SSE2 intrinsics 4x]...  DONE
Raw:    17892K c/s real, 17892K c/s virtual

whereas on FX-8120 the speed is almost 29M c/s (with XOP).  (All of
these are for 1 core, indeed.)

...or are you not talking about your SHA-1 code, but in general?
