3.2 - 2.4 = 0.8GHz difference . That's 40% performance boost !
its faaaaaaaar away from truth...
I speed up Pentium4 from 2.2 to 4.5ghz(in 2006-7)...it give minimal boost(like 10-15%)
reason is-memory speed and amount of memory on processor
every "real" program use tons of memory for operation,only few math programs do not need all time copy tons of Gb memory
its video codders(ffmpeg like), video games, web browser, 3d rendering(its not getin faster), converting files....even web servers and work with DB...
all stuck on memory
real boost from 2.4 to 3.2 maybe 5% up to 10%(because many cores)...in real applications
