Just doing some Super PI baseline benchmarks for a wee project I am thinking of doing. Should, provided all other variables such as other programs, cpu speed and ram timings are constant, the scores for each type of superPI be constant, ie if you run 1MB 10 times using -
defrag, restart, superPI run
I ask as for instance for the 1MB test after 10 runs I have
31.719
31.844
31.719
31.750
31.781
31.922
31.922
31.765
31.875
31.922
The average is 31.822 - should they not all be the same or very near it?
For the record the variation in 8MB over 5 runs is 13sec from highest to loowest and for 32MB over 5 runs it is almost 1minute!
