Yes, the particular results would only be applicable to the particular CPU, but if any CPU showed a dropoff in leakage current at a certain operating point, it would be likely that all of the CPU's in that family would have a similar dropoff at some point.
Such a dropoff might indicate a point where a substantial gain in overclock could be achieved.
I don't know that many people would be able to make practical use of the information. (Of course anyone posting in this thread likely lost sight of what "practical" means, long ago.) Mostly, I'm just curious about this stuff.
