new pre-release client now available.

im seeing more than 20 percent faster ogr processing on AMD machines.
Your mileage may vary.

As previously mentioned, the work that Kakace was doing improve the
existing OGR-P2 cores has indeed resulted in further speed
improvements for even non-PPC processors as well:
On a 64-bit AMD Opteron system:
Before = OGR-P2: Benchmark for core #0 (GARSP 5.13)
0.00:00:16.33 [14,123,965 nodes/sec]
After = OGR-P2: Benchmark for core #0 (GARSP 6.0-64)
0.00:00:16.22 [23,151,097 nodes/sec]
And even a slight gain on Intel Pentium III (Tualatin) system:
Before = OGR-P2: Benchmark for core #0 (GARSP 5.13-A)
0.00:00:16.60 [8,192,495 nodes/sec]
After = OGR-P2: Benchmark for core #0 (GARSP 6.0-A)
0.00:00:25.64 [8,709,555 nodes/sec]
There will be a number of new pre-release clients made available in
the next day or so, so eager testers can look forward to playing with
them soon!
me thinks it is time to invest in some Operton goodness

Woot, I'll just have to try it on the AMD64 machines
Thanks for the info Beyond!

Bok, it would be interesting to know the node/sec rate you are seeing with the 'new' client on the AMD64 machine(s).
-:Beyond:-
Whoa! This new PPC core is flying.
933Mhz G4 QS:
Old core: ~11.1M n/s
New core: ~23M n/s
800Mhz G3 B&W:
Old core: 7.9M n/s
New core: 13.3M n/s
Large gains even w/out the Altivec engine is really impressive.
Amazing. :shocked:

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."
I'll try and get to it tomorrow, no promises though, I'm slammed at work tomorrowOriginally posted by Beyond

~9.0M n/s on a AMD 1100Mhz
~16.5M n/s on a AMD2200+
hmmm,
there only appears to be an updated client for AMD64 on FreeBSD on that page. My A64 machines are all linux, so we'll have to wait.....thought I guess the FreeBSD version *might* run on linux.

Rocking numbers Death!!
You digging your G5?
I cut my G4 and G3 over to OGR for a few days....best bang for processing buck going right now.

I agree, looks like the linux client version only at xxx491, with no speed improvements, in fact may be a bit slower than the xxx489, xxx490 clients.

has this become the "normal" client yet?
can i squeeze some more from my boxen using this ?
Use the right tool for the right job!
Use it. I get my numbers out of a measly 1.7Ghz
No reason to not expect it to become the "offical" client. Besides, they won't take your points away regardless

<envy>After a few calculations, that box alone should be good for upwards of 4T per DAY.</envy>
Sounds pretty impressive !! But I would expect more than 4T....
I ran OGR on a 12-way-1.2Ghz Sun box early this year and it was posting something like 12T per day

I was merely using the 50,000,000 nodes/sec that IB gave.Originally posted by Bok
Sounds pretty impressive !! But I would expect more than 4T....
50,000,000 * 60 = 3,000,000,000 nodes/minute (3G)
3,000,000,000 * 60 = 180,000,000,000 nodes/hour (180G)
180,000,000,000 * 24 = 4,320,000,000,000 nodes/day (4.32T)
