i7 6700 is skylake not haswell

  True, but it has the same floating-point throughput per socket and per clock cycle as Haswell. Until Haswell, for many years Intel had the target of doubling the FP throughput per desktop socket every 2 years, in order to avoid the risk of AMD catching up again with them. After launching Haswell, Intel has relaxed and they did not increase again the throughput for about a half of decade, until they had to start again to do that, under the menace of AMD Zen, when for lack of other better means they have increased every year the number of cores per socket from Kaby Lake (4 cores in 2016) to Comet Lake (10 cores in 2019).
