Title: New 2.4L version for linux x86
Post by: Crunch3r on 14 Sep 2007, 02:25:44 pm

Hello,

i've updated the 32 bit linux apps and those work for 2.4 & 2.6 Kernels.

Some changes:
- new SSE2 app is for both Intel and AMD cpus
- added FFTW builds for SSE & SSE2

Download: http://calbe.dw70.de/seti.html

regards
Crunch3r

I updated the benchmark benchmark. Since my computers are dual-core or dual-CPU, I added the "taskset" statement to enforce CPU affinity to CPU #2.

If your computer has only one CPU, just remove "taskset 0x2" from the script.
If your computer has multiple CPUs and has no taskset command, install it.
Ubuntu: sudo apt-get schedutils.
Red Hat/Novell: download and install schedutils RPM.

The new 2.4L app are averaging about 7% slower than the previous R-2.4|xW apps on my AMD Athlon64 3000+ running Ubuntu/2.6.15-29-server...

I used KWSN-Bench-Linux with new benchmark script,
tested with testWU 1 and 2.
Where are MB wu?

Results:

new 2.4L seems better than old 2.4 8)
good job...thanks, thanks, thanks ;D

SSE3 ok but slow,
FFTW more slow than stock,
the best for my system: SSE2.
Now I'm installing it.
