Me too ( 0.7 / 0.5 on atlon mp 2200+)


Even if you use FFTW with Octave, there is no guarantee that it is
precisely the same as the version used by Matlab.

I think one of the differences is the version of the compiler used.
In my experience, on x86 platform,  2.95.x does a better job than
any 3.[012].* (have not tried 3.3.x yet). For both fftw and atlas.
