The answers are in this thread and the other threads you've started here about your micro-techno-angst. In very plain language as far as I can discern.
The benchmarks you see aren't relevant to your use-case. They aren't intended to be relevant to your use-case, the reason being that your use-case is almost entirely trivially satisfied by any semi-competent modern hardware configuration. That includes all the configurations you're considering and many more cheaper too. There's no point benchmarking your use-case, for this reason [just like everyone stopped benchmarking 2D VGA performance a decade ago]. This has been stated in this thread. By several people.
For your use-case you are most likely to be I/O-bound, and mildly I/O bound at that. This has been stated in this thread along with a solution - spend your money on an SSD not on a CPU, if you feel you have to spend your money at all.
So, please excuse me, but can I turn the question around. What answer are you actually looking for? Would you be happy if we all just clubbed together and made up an answer for you? We can probably all manage to sound authoritative if you want.
Sorry if I'm coming across like an arse here, but you really do seem to be being almost intentionally filtering out answers that don't back up some unstated pre-conceptions you have about what you want to buy.
