I recall reading somewhere that typically only x86_64 (64-bit) capable Intel CPUs gained in performance with Leopard. Otherwise, mostly a wash. If more people post results, we'll see if that's right.

When reporting scores, it may also be worth reporting what type of Leopard install you performed (archive + install vs. erase and install vs. upgrade).
