Any performance numbers for VMS on X86_64 are not *that* interesting until it's
built with native optimizing compilers.
Native compilers are becoming available, but the build process will take some
time to convert to a native build.
I do not think (but am not sure) that V9.2-2 (scheduled for near the end of the
year) would be a native build. Early builds of that version are being done
with cross compilers.
