I wouldn't put alot of stock in some of the p4 benchmarks...Dont hold me to it but I believe they were posted before the protien update.

So I'm seeing these numbers but would like to ask a question...
If someone wanted to build a mini farm of folders for df, what would you guess would yield the most output...
3x 2.4c @ 3.2 w/ ht on
or
5x amd 2500 or 2600+ at stock
TIA

The benchmark does not have anything to do with the current protein. The protein has no affect on it, that is why it is a benchmark. If the client itself changes, which it does do, that can change the benchmark.Originally posted by Bionic_Redneck

so let me get this straight benchmark doesn't change with a new protein but does with a new client and we get a new client ever time there is a new protein. Am I missing something here?

If you check the date on the current foldtrajlite.exe, you will probably find it to be 2/10/2004. The client did not change this time, only the protein files.

And most client changes are various bug fixes. The only thing that would change the benchmark would be a change in the algorithm.

FSB has a greater impact than overall clock speed, with a delta of 100Mhz or less. Gentoo Linux clients run faster than the Win2K. On P3 and P4 the ICC client runs faster than the GCC.

Would a processor like a Presscot WITH 1024 kb of L2 cache instead of only 512 give a big performance boost? comparing this to the athlons en Northwoods??

It does help, though I am unsure by how much, I imagine not a great deal. I would avoid Prescotts for Folding due to the heat issues, especially with this protein ..
I am not a Stats Ho, it is just more satisfying to see that my numbers are better than yours.

Seems to eat system time with this fancy user-interface GUI.
Running -bench simultaneously in 2 processes does pretty much the same
if that matters to anyone.

why do I get the first error and whats usr time and sys time?

The error may be because you didn't put a .\ in front of the foldtrajlite command (if you didn't) -- I believe that on Windows you have to do that for it to work right.
Sys time is time spent inside the OS kernel. For example, when a program calls an OS function to read data from a file into a buffer, the time that the OS spends actually doing the reading from disk (or from memory, if your OS is smart enough to cache previously accessed file data... ) and copying it into your buffer is sys time.
Usr time (an abbreviation for "user") is time spent running the program's code -- the various loops, conditionals, and recursive function calls (if any) that exist in all usermode code. On Windows, this probably includes code located in DLLs that didn't come with the system (depends on what the DLLs are for), and it's debatable whether it also includes DLLs like comdlg32 that perform systemwide functions like bringing up common dialog boxes. It definitely excludes time spent inside things like the video driver. It may or may not exclude the time spent by csrss.exe doing screen updates (that depends on what the OS counts as user time vs. system time).

I'll have to track down the chart of Athlon 64 model numbers versus Ghz - but the Athlon64 3000+ 754pin cpu is say a 2Ghz part. The same Ghz speed 939pin cpu is a Athlon64 3200+.
So it might be nice to see an Athlon64 3000+ 754pin cpu compared to the 939 pin Athlon64 3000+ and the 939 part running at the same Ghz as the Athlon 754 pin cpu tested.
