I had a look at the benchmark page, and I have another result:

IBM p630 1.45GHz Power4+
AIX5.2+ESSL4.1+lapack_lapw
xlf 8.1.1
Compiler options: -q64 -O5

Ran "x lapw1 -c" for the test_case on one processor only.

STOP  LAPW1 END
241.4u 0.6s 4:04 98% 390+88716k 0+0io 503pf+0w

Best regards,
Torsten.
