Pre-release tester with x64 Windows & SSE3 P4 needed
« on: 18 Feb 2009, 05:24:29 am »
to test performance of AK_v8b SSE3 x64 build.

If you have SSE3-only Intel CPU (that is P4, not Core2 or Core ), x64 Windows OS and willing to run some performance test, please, send me PM.

I attached test case to this post.
Please, extract archive and run Knabench151.cmd file. If BOINC installed as service it will be automatically stopped and restarted after test. Else, please, don't forget to stop BOINC.
After run will be  completed, post txt file from TestDatas directory (as attachment).

I saw that ... I suspect those dodgy OS delayed writes again.  I may be wrong about that, but haven't thought of a completely foolproof way to eliminate that variation ... perhaps a custom copy command that issues a flush before close of the destination file ?

Hmmm, not even wisdom generation to consider ... I wonder, will think about some possible tests to see if I can identify such discrepancy on my system or not.

Ok, thanks.
All AMD results confirm that this SSE3 x64 build not for AMD hosts - too slow on VHARs.
