Do we have any benchmarks of performance of the Mac Pro with 4x2GB modules against 4x2GB+2x1GB?

I understand 10GB will always give better performance, is this the majority opinion within Macrumor's forums? Sorry if this is a repeat thread.

there is a marginal performance hit if you have 2 different sized pairs of modules.

personally, i don't think it's that big of a deal....(have stock 2X1 plus 2X2, works great.)

i think there's bench marks on barefeets...
