    y-cruncher: Multi-Threaded Pi-Benchmark for Multi-Core Systems...
    (official thread)

    Latest Version: v0.6.5.9442
    Now with support for XOP and AVX2. Backward-compatibility is maintained for older processors.

    The benchmark is also available for 64-bit Linux.

    Pi Benchmark Results: Can you do any better?

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    What is y-cruncher?

    y-cruncher is (yet another) program that computes Pi to millions of digits.

    But unlike SuperPi and PiFast:
    • y-cruncher is multi-threaded and is capable of using multiple cores.
    • y-cruncher is able to use modern instruction sets such as SSE and AVX.

    And unlike HyperPi, y-cruncher uses multiple threads to make a single computation faster. (as opposed to running the same computation multiple times)

    Because y-cruncher is multi-threaded and uses up-to-date processor features, it can reach speeds and sizes that are unobtainable with older apps:
    • A stock AMD FX-8350 can do 32M digits in 9.737 seconds using y-cruncher. SuperPi requires upwards of 20 minutes.
    • A Core i7 4770K @ 4.0 GHz can do 1,000,000,000 digits in 206 seconds.
    • The same Core i7 equipped with 32GB ram and 8 hard drives can do 100 billion digits in 23 hours.
    • A dual Xeon E5-2690W @ 3.5 GHz with 256GB ram and 22 hard drives can do 1 trillion digits in 83 hours.


    Likewise, y-cruncher is capable of setting world records for the most digits ever computed:

    Main Machine:
    AMD FX8350 @ stock --- 16 GB DDR3 @ 1333 MHz --- Asus M5A99FX Pro R2.0 --- 2.0 TB Seagate

    Miscellaneous Workstations for Code-Testing:
    Intel Core i7 4770K @ 4.0 GHz --- 32 GB DDR3 @ 1866 MHz --- Asus Z87-Plus --- 1.5 TB (boot) --- 4 x 1 TB + 4 x 2 TB (swap)
