Finally (for me at least) Sun published a paper with performance measurements of their shiny new CPU Rock.
For those currently living under a rock (pun intended), this is the newest and delayed sparc processor from Sun which implements Hardware Transactional Memory (HTM).
The paper is available at Sun's Labs Scalable Synchronization Research Group soon to be published at ASPLOS'09.
