2.4V updated apps.
Raistmer:
But for AMD 64 leader is SSE2 32-bit version under 64-bit OS it seems.
Is it because worse Intel compiler optimization for Athlons or something wrong with SSE2 64-bit AMD realization? Just curious...

Hope they post some info about testbench used here. Wonna get comparable results on my systems too ;)
Some database with test times on different app builds/OSes/ CPUs will be useful IMHO :)

The testbench I used was the 1.43 knabench available in the downloads 'test and benchmark tools' section.
The test WUs used are attached below. For a short test, just run the 6 FMXXXX wus.. For a longer, more accurate test, use the MBXXXX wus, but they will take much time to run, closer to a full lenght Seti wu.
And I substiuted the 2.2b app (use the one that matches your cpu) for the reference app rather than the old 5.15 that is in the test package.
You had also asked earlier about the best wu to use for comparing apps and platforms. That is the problem, there is no such wu. Different AR wus crunch differently with different apps, some are faster on one than another. So the only way you can test is by running a range of wus and see which app does better overall.
And as far as the result database, Simon has mentioned working on such a thing on the home page of this site. Hopefully he has the time soon to continue work on that project.

I use 1.43 knabench too, will run with your WUs now :)
Thank you!
P.S. this test loads only 1 core. As I see from your test file you run it on quad. Did you manage all cores loading with app binding to core (some CPU affinity) ?
imagecfg.exe from test bench doesnt work for me (is it only for NT4 ?)...

No, the testbench only runs a single instance of the test app at a time on one core.. My quad is x64 and is my fastest rig, that's why I run the tests there, because I can test 32 bit and 64 bit apps.

So right now probably KWSN_2.4V_SSSE3_MB.exe is the leader :) (from 2.4V_Windows_x64_SSSE3 archive)

Thanks for the reply, thankfully that is the version I am running. I used the version with graphics "2.4V_Windows_x64_SSSE3_GFX" but when the screen saver starts I get a blank screen "no graphics"... Wonder if there was something else I was sappose to do to get the nice seti 3D screen saver?
Thanks again for your reply.
