XS Benchers, time to dominate a new benchmark!

[FragTek]

Geek Patrol has JUST released a new multi-platform benchmark called Geekbench. It's available for Windows, OS X, and Linux.

Let's see XS invade and take over! Currently the top scores are all held by Power Mac Quad G5's, see if you can take em out :)

Download the benchmark here: http://www.geekpatrol.ca/geekbench/#download

Have fun everyone! :clap:

i'm number 20...ramping up speed to see how it scales:

only 183.3 , not too bad i guess

[FragTek]

On my MBP...

Windows: 214.3
OS X: 189.5

[SoF]

any way to sort results after best descending?
it shows it unsorted to me what is bs ;)

Well that did it...

Linux for dah win :D

[cadaveca]

nice.:fact:

[WesM63]

I ran it earlier on my e6600 at 3.5ghz but didn't submit the results. I will later tonight.

[uOpt]

The benchmark is mostly rubbish of course, not resembling anything real-world.

A major chunk is based on the "stream" benchmark that IIRC is also the core part of the useless Sandra memory bandwidth test.

[Charles Wirth]

Top spot

http://www.geekpatrol.ca/browse/2006/?view&id=1135

No way to show who the result is submitted by?

[ZX7891]

uOPT has the top spot at 476 i believe, and afaik, there isnt a way to show it, it just automatically submits

[uOpt]

I'm 1124.

The benchmark needs a 64 bit version bad. It reports the first stream result as 3.6 GB/sec, but running a standlone 64 bit executable of stream reads:


Function Rate (MB/s) Avg time Min time Max time
Copy: 4326.1153 0.0075 0.0074 0.0076
Scale: 4229.4614 0.0076 0.0076 0.0076
Add: 4577.1648 0.0106 0.0105 0.0106
Triad: 4472.6322 0.0108 0.0107 0.0110

It's also unfair and making comparisions difficult that they use gcc-4.0.0 for Linux and MacOS but not for Windows, although gcc-4.0.0 is available for Windows.

It would have been nice to see how the Intel compiler does for Conroe, for example.

Source code not available although almost everything they put in there is popular OpenSource software. Fools.

Looks pretty toyish overall to me overall, but at least it runs quick and well.

[FragTek]

I just thought it would be a fun little project to have some of yall with these new high powered Conroes to come in and lay down some results that no other computer will ever be able to touch :)

Doin' good boys!

[ex2cib]

well, it shows the power of conroe compared to the G5's

i laughed that my 2.5ghz single core venice with almost stock ram was only 100 points behind the top G5

my 13 month old smithfield doesnt do that bad...lol, it got my cpu frequncy wrong

[uOpt]

Not really Conroe as such.

It rather shows that Fugger and I both use the SuperTalent DDR2-1000 :D

Most tests in that benchmark are either too small or just memory bandwidth tests. So we get one with the clockspeed and the other with the DDR2.

I'll donate $0.01 to them with a thank you note that they took so many OpenSource parts and made a closed-part product :stick:

[Zardokk]

I'm ranked #104...without an serious OC on my CPU or anything...This benchmark is really pointless and at the current time there aren't enough users to really make it worth doing. That being said, I want to break into the top 100.

I´m ranking no. 5

Surpose that´s alright ;-)

Actually it´s just sad, that there isn´t any way to make a profile there, so that we could proof that it´s our results.

Build 190 has been released... Don't know what's change, check it out: http://www.geekpatrol.ca/geekbench/#download

I closed a couple ie windows and it went up some points...

didnt care to shut down programs and such.

201points...

Time to give that Conroe another kick, I'll be back :)

2.8GHz DC opteron only a bit faster than my single core sempron at 2.6GHz ??
thats weird...

No, it's mostly a useless memory bandwidth benchmark.

[itznfb]

i test geekbench on several machines, and got results that just didn't make sense. i think the benchmark is worthless.

i tested it on a 2.4 northwood box with 512mb ram, scored just over 200, tested it on my opty 2.8 with 1gb ram scored just over 250, t2500 with 2gb or ram ~ just over 250. then i tested it on a 4 Xeon server with 16gb of ram. it was only capable of using 2gb of ram though, scored 331.

[jfpoole]

Hi. I'm John, and I'm the developer of Geekbench.

itznfb,

I'm wondering why the results don't make sense to you. Did you submit the results? I'd like to go over the results you saw and see if there are any problems with Geekbench.

[itznfb]

my biggest problem with it was that it didn't seem consistent. so it seems like its inaccurate. you have a 4xXeon shouldn't perform the same as a 1xAthlon. i submitted a few results, i'll look them up tomorrow, you can shoot me a PM if you want to discuss it more in depth.

the way for submit is a little bit strange..
