Benchmark request
Would you help me by running a benchmark on AMD64 and P4 systems with
dual-channel DDR? I am trying to decide between AMD64 and P4 (875 or 865xx) dual-channel PC3200 systems. Most of the machine's CPU cycles will be used to run just one program, which happens to be very memory-intensive. This benchmark is a scaled-down version of that particular program, with a realistic calculation load. Two years ago, the available single-channel DDR solutions, with low-speed FSB, didn't do too well on this benchmark, relative to RDRAM; I'm hoping the situation has changed, since RDRAM doesn't seem to be going anywhere. =====the test======== Here are some rather dated, painfully explicit instructions for running the test under windows. The Linux version is very similar in usage: http://users.viawest.net/~hwstock/bench/3d0/how_3d0.doc ....If you try to open this file directly from the web, and you have Norton Antivirus, you may get a complaint that this file has a "malicious script" (it doesn't), probably because it has embedded web URLs. In any case, you may want to download the file and scan it before you read it. And here are the zipped benchmark executables, for windows (95 and up) and Linux x86. http://users.viawest.net/~hwstock/bench/3d0/3d0.zip http://users.viawest.net/~hwstock/be.../3d0_linux.zip The how_3d0.doc file explains what I need returned to me. BUT, if you would rather just post results, you can use the "MUPS" number from the bottom of file lb_data.txt. Two years ago, a 1.4 GHz P4 with PC800 RDRAN scared about 5.94 MUPs. Please specify the mboard chipset, CPU, FSB, and RAM type/channel. ================== If you feel more comfortable communicating via an edu or gov address, I can be reached at: hwstock _AT_ alum dot mit dot edu or hwstock _AT_ sandia dot gov |
