measure memory bandwidth on sandy bridge

Hello,
I was googling around for this with no luck. In "memory bandwidth" analysis of vtune, using these
OFFCORE_RESPONSE.LLC_MISS.LOCAL_DRAM_0
OFFCORE_RESPONSE.LLC_MISS.LOCAL_DRAM_1
CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.REF_TSC
events, program memory bandwidth usage timeline is available, However, aggregatememory bandwidth value of whole program is not there.
I was to trying to figure out hwo to get this. My guess is
(OFFCORE_RESPONSE.LLC_MISS.LOCAL_DRAM_0 +OFFCORE_RESPONSE.LLC_MISS.LOCAL_DRAM_1) * 64 / , which gives ~24GB/s, which is not possible on my Xeon E3 -1225 cpu, the max BW is 21GB/s. STREAM benchmark gives only ~14GB/s for a 4 threads setup. There must something wrong with above formula. My question is: what is the correct formula to get memory bandwidth on sandy bridge?
thank you,
yuanfang
