But with 8 cores you got so much troubles optimizing for the 8 cores that you actually reduce the CPU-power by simply trying to make them all work together in harmony...

2: More impressive than P4 to C2D?
Only if the 8-cores were really utilized. If a lot of devs don't make much uses of 4-cores, good luck with 8.
If the 8-cores aren't utilized well, saying that it could be more impressive is just blowing stuff out of proportion.
Which sounds a lot like what "enthusiasts" would do.
