I think I haven't had time to test it yet ;)

Sometime tonight, I'll be able to tell you more.

HTH,
Simon.

I just tried again.  Copied the 3 DLL files into the science apps file along with the test app, still no go.  Got the same WBEM dll error.  That's alll I have time to try before I go to work today, I'll check when I get home late tonight, and if y'all have found a fix, I will do a test run on my FX60 against the patched -PM app I am currently running.

I've tested it ... CPU PD@3.6 GHz

AMD client: <wu_cpu_time>243.687500</wu_cpu_time>
2.2B : <wu_cpu_time>179.421875</wu_cpu_time>

thanx cruncher.and validation was ok ?
next version has : malloc,vectorized powerspectrum,and vectorized memcopy (APL)....
would be uploaded tomorrow about 1500(GMT+1)

any results from AMD based machine ?

I would test it on my FX60 rig if you or Simon can advise me how to get it to run without the DLL error I posted this morning.

1. download ---> http://www.dependencywalker.com/depends22_x86.zip
2. extract the program
3. run "depends.exe" and open "seti_5.17_devaster_ACML_GFX.exe"
4. after that it'll show you what dlll's are missing to run thhe app.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


P.S. Personally this is my opinion ......

ACML is to way slow .... the whole thing was tried back while we had non_enhanced seti ... IPP is way faster even using AMD CPU's it's not worth the hassle.

The thing to have a look at is to use IPP or MKL for powerspectrum an Transpose.

Anything else is not even worth a try if you're going for speed.

I have already downloaded and unzipped the program.  What or where is 'depends.exe'?  I simply cut and pasted the app into Knabench and get the DLL error.  I get a DLL error when I just try to run the app by double clicking it in the temp folder.  MSVCR80.dll could not be found.

my fault ... I always forgot  add a MS VC runtime .... :-[

in last APL (comparable with IPP)  is a fft too so i try this version ...

a question : how many threads wanna use in APL ? one or more ?

today morning i have a 4 hours power outage, so sorry i have do only a vectorized powerspectrum ....

now AMD version  is veeeery slow in search pulses and triplets ... say CodeAnalyst.

iam trying maximal vectorize it....
and transpose functions  too.

maybe it would be better when  a MS c++ compiler can unroll the loops ???

If only you can make it faster than generic AMD (Barton core) SSE version client... I`d be very happy!
