Agent Smith was right!: "I hate this place. This zoo. This prison. This reality, whatever you want to call it, I can't stand it any longer. It's the smell! If there is such a thing. I feel saturated by it. I can taste your stink and every time I do, I fear that I've somehow been infected by it."
Thanks IB.
I grabbed a copy of the ones from a couple times ago (the last time there were quite a few submitted) so it is all good.
I guess I should do something with them.
Maybe we will ge ta lot submitted since this protein should last a long time.

In the interest of collecting data that might give more insite into the peformance and behavior of the client, could anyone do any of the following benchmarks (if you have the ability and the willingness to do the work, for which there is no reward other than knowledge gained):
- an AMD Duron 1.0GHz system dedicated to crunching. It can use SDRAM or DDR, but it should be a relatively "average" 1ghz box with pretty consistent output/usage. The goal here is to get a reliable number for Tellian to use in his cool cross-project stats.
- a Pentium 4 Northwood (though a Willy would be welcome as well) running with the the extra RAM option and also running without the extra RAM option. I am curious if the smaller performance increase on the P4 when enabling the extra RAM option in comparison to the Athlon is still an issue. Also, if anyone has noticed any differences between the Athlon (sort of the standard) and platforms other than the P4 (specifically the P3). Is the Athlon's increase larger than on other CPUs, or is the P4s smaller?
- tests on a single computer (or on seperate boxen with identical hardware) running Windows NT (any flavor, I think they are all real close), Windows9x (ditto in regards to versions) and Linux (I imagine this could vary a lot depending on libraries and distros, etc., anyone have anything useful to point out from thier observations?).
Some questions that someone can probably answer without running tests.
Is the performance anomaly when running the command line client in Windows 9x with the graphics on (as opposed to having the output muted) still present?
I am pretty sure that there still exists a performance difference between Linux and Windows (any version), but can someone confirm this (based upon reasonably reliable data)? If so, does anyone have a guess which they feel is pretty accurate in terms of % difference?
Has anyone ever observed any real performance improvement as a result of increasing the priority level (this is in regards to farm boxen, not computers in use for other activities)?
How about in regards to the frequency of writing to the progress.txt file? Obviously less disk writes would be a good thing, but has anyone been able to document what was even a noticeable difference?
Thanks.
Also, if you have questions regarding this stuff that someone doesn't answer right away, feel free to holler at me and I will see what I can dig up. I don't actually know jack about anything, but I can be persistent and I hassle people who actually DO know what they are talking about.
Perhaps this will help answer somebody's questions, somewhere.
I'm setting up a system (typing on it now, matter of fact) to test OSes. The hardware is REALLY stable!
The hdd has 4 partitions, one each for Win98, W2K, WXP, and RedHat Linux. Set up with System Commander, none of the partitions can see any of the others. Each one thinks it's all there is.
Just finished loading the 3 Winders platforms. Gonna do RedHat tomorrow night, unless work intervenes.
I'm optioning each as close as possible to what I believe to be a "standard" installation.
My plan is to run each one for 24 hours, no-netted, then harvest the results. The way my schedule looks now, I should be able to publish first results in about a week. I hope. THEN I should be able to go back and tweak, as for instance, the graphics in Win98.
Look for a new thread on this soon.
MAD-ness
i can do some of this, when i get time, probably in a couple of weeks
i have access to many identical boxen that i can load various OS onto and run benchmarks
i know for a FACT that WinXP is slower than Win9X, i have already submitted benchmarks from identical boxen proving that

Shame I only have it for a day
Seems like you already have enough work to do Fobot.
Not that I will argue.
Also, if you have results that you have submitted on a recent protein which you feel are pretty accurate (machine not in use, several hour minimum run time, etc.) and you point them out to me I will use them as the data.
It isn't so much that no one has submitted the benchmarks I am looking for as it is that I don't KNOW that is what they are and I don't know how trustworthy the data is.
I figure that even with accurate data I will screw things up, so if i start with unreliable data I will REALLY be in trouble.
Paratima: sounds interesting, methodical and ambitious. I like it.
Another thing that I just thought of. Using the gcc compiled version of a client instead of the icc compiled version (it is late again, maybe I am thinking of another project's client offering both versions). Again, there is an assumption that one is faster than the other (with the icc version being the faster of the two) but having a solid number to throw to give people when they ask would be a "good thing."
i can give you good data, when i get time
these boxen are not used by anybody else , no other processes going on
they are stock out of the box Compaq pc's, all identical
i have full control of them and can load any OS, run the client anyway i need to (well, execpt with -it)
the only down side is, they are ALL intel, no AMD
and my largest populations are
Pentium III 1Ghz
Celeron 1.1 Ghz
Pentium III 450 Mhz
in january , i could do similar runs with celeron 1.7 Ghz, and maybe another model, but again, no AMD
Use the right tool for the right job!
Fobot: DC is probably the only area more heavily populated by AMD K7 core CPUs than gaming.
There always seem to be Duron, Tbird, and XP results out the wazoo, but not as many on Intel systems.
To me, the massive number of platform variations, even in one "family" of Intel processors (i.e., Pentium, PPro, P2, Celeron, P3, P4, etc.) is both a hassle (trying to figure out what stepping, FSB speed, chipset, cache size/speed, packaging type, pin count, etc.) and something of interest.
Because everything after the Pentium and before the P4 were derivatives of the PPro core (correct me if I am wrong here, but I don't think that I am, the P2 was a reworking of the PPro and the rest of the lines evolved from the P2 core), data taken from across this range naturally conveys information about architecture improvements, client resource demands, etc.
Want to know if more cache has a large impact on a program? Run it on Celeron, a P2, a coppermine P3 and a Xeon P3 with a large cache. Want to know how FSB speed impacts a program? You can go from 66 to 133 and you can cover several configurations with a single motherboard (given the proper chipset, the 440bx being a famous example of a versatile chipset).
Anyways, AMD benchmarks are easy to obtain, in fact, I have no doubt I could obtain just about any info I need on an AMD, if not I could run it myself on one of the 4 various AMD systems I have direct access to.

Not horrible for that processor. That one's using -rt also. The reason it's doing about half of what my main box is, is that on my main box I do other fun things that take CPU time, like recompiling winex and such. zsnes also takes quite a bit of processor to run, for some reason. And the ut2k3 demo isn't probably good for my production, either.------------------------------------------------------------

FINALLY got that box running mostly right! This is the MSI-KT3 Ultra with the XP2200+ in it.
Ran like a rabbit when I first slapped it together. Then, as the proteins got faster, I started getting "Signal 11" errors in Linux. Howard said "memory". Swapped out the DDR, that wasn't it.
Switched to Win98. Problems "sorta" went away. A few BSD's, and some lockups, but better. Protein got faster (the current one). Arrrrrrgh! Almost wouldn't run, even with the BIOS set to "safe" defaults.
The BIOS! Ay-yi-yi! I FINALLY took the time to play around with it. Downloaded the lastest from MSI. The upgrade, including writing out a floppy, rebooting, etc, etc, took maybe 15 minutes.
VOILA! With slight tweaking, this board now runs like a striped-assed ape. These numbers are the best I can get without playing with voltages. This is with the CAS left at the default 2.5, so's I can run higher FSB.
Check for upgrades for your BIOS!
