c# program and output 

Description of Problem:

For most things I'm seeing a 2-5x performance on an IA64 system over my Celeron
(which is about the cheapest thing money can buy)

However my Celeron stomps the IA64 system for a test mono program by 10-15x.  
Can you please explain this or improve IA64 mono performance?

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1.  Run the attached C# program on an x86 or x86_64 system
2.  Run the attached C# program on an IA64 system


Actual Results:
Here are the run times I'm getting.   

17-21 secs for int_sin.exe Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU          215  @ 1.33GHz
(mono 2.4.2.3)
332   secs for int_sin.exe Itanium2 1.4 GHz  (mono 2.4.2.3 - compiled from
source)
280   secs for int_sin.exe Itanium2 1.4 GHz  (mono 1.2.2 - from SLES 10 SP3)


Expected Results:
Both Itanium2 runs should have been less that 17 secs.


How often does this happen? 
Every time.
