1) Message boards : Number crunching : Low CPU benchmarks (Message 60238) Posted 20 Mar 2009 by Nils Post: A few things, first since this computer is an unused one that I have laying at home, I decided to experiment on it yesterday - this is why it is running Linux. BOINC is the only program that is installed on it - the benchmarks did improved slightly with me not touching the mouse. The REAL RAC is from a different computer running Rosetta 24/7 and not from the new one. If there is anyone here using a system similar to mine (Ubuntu 8.10, AMD, 2 Giga RAM) I would like to know if these benches are OK.
2) Message boards : Number crunching : Low CPU benchmarks (Message 60233) Posted 20 Mar 2009 by Nils Post: hi, I running an AuthenticAMD AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5200+ [Family 15 Model 107 Stepping 2] with 2 giga of RAM under Ububtu 8.10 and my CPU benchmarks are very low compared to running under XP. Benchmark results: Number of CPUs: 2 766 floating point MIPS (Whetstone) per CPU 1602 integer MIPS (Dhrystone) per CPU Is this a familiar problem?
