Performance
From Biowerkzeug Wiki
As a basic performance test we run the simulations in the test directory with these commands (on Linux):
cd testjobs time ./calc_testjobs
- We report the user time.
- CPU properties are found with
cat /proc/cpuinfo
and model names from List_of_Intel_microprocessors for Intel (also see the detailed lists of Intel x86 cpus) and List_of_AMD_microprocessors for AMD cpus (also see the detailed lists of AMD cpus). - Also report the binary used (hippo or hippo_p3) and the revision.
- Note that these tests only utilize a single core.
- These results only give a rough idea of the relative performance of different architectures.
Please add your own results.
vendor | model | GHz | cores | time/min | binary | revision |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Intel | Core 2 Quad Q9550 | 2.83 | 4 | 1:04 | hippo | rev32 |
Intel | Core 2 Quad Q9550 | 2.83 | 4 | 1:06 | hippo_p3 | rev32 |
Intel | Quad Core Xeon L5410 | 2.33 | 4 | 1:27 | hippo | rev32 |
Intel | Quad Core Xeon L5410 | 2.33 | 4 | 1:31 | hippo_p3 | rev32 |
Intel | Core Duo T2300 (Mac Mini) | 1.66 | 2 | 2:41 | hippo_p3 | rev32 |
Intel | Xeon 2.4 | 2.4 | 1 | 3:03 | hippo_p3 | rev26 |
AMD | Athlon XP 1800+ | 1.53 | 1 | 4:30 | hippo_p3 | rev26 |
(You don't have to link to the CPU wikipedia page; just put down whatever you got and even if you're unsure. If in doubt just put the output from
cat /proc/cpuinfo | \ awk 'BEGIN {FS=":"}; \ /vendor_id/ {vendor=$2}; \ /model name/ {model=$2}; \ /cpu MHz/ {GHz=$2/1000}; \ /siblings/ {cores=$2}; \ END {printf("|-\n| %s\n| %s\n| %.1f\n| %d\n| TIME\n| ?\n| ?\n", vendor, model, GHz, cores)}'
into the wiki table and replace TIME by what you measured.
