We need a 1.7 dfgui with the -rt
it's so fast!!!

Not to fear, v1.7 will appear!!! :cool:

Howard was kind enough to let me know how the new RAM feature would work in advance so I have already worked this into dfGUI and am currently testing it to make sure it works properly. So far so good. I will release v1.7 hopefully tonight if not tomorrow morning. This version also has a bunch of bug fixes that I found doing a crazy debugging marathon with fellow Team ARS member Joe O.

So everyone will be happy to be able to use the new Use RAM feature AND have their benchmark data work properly. :smoking:

With my preliminary tests on a P3-850 I was getting:

Old method:
0.21 structs/sec (18189 structs/day)

New extra RAM method (-rf):
0.47 structs/sec (40500 structs/day)

Pretty sweet :notworthy
