As the table shows, the Celeron 220 lags behind the dual core Pentium by a wide margin, trailing it by up to 60% due to its single-core architecture. Yet even when compared to the single-core Sempron LE-1100, the Celeron still falls short by up to 29%. Cinema 4D is the only exception here, since it is heavily optimized for the Conroe Architecture, giving the Celeron a 13% edge over the Sempron.
