Timings Table
| 
|
This gives the output of running /usr/bin/time ./RUN all in
the top level feeds directory; this is user CPU time, i.e. the
time with a u by it.
If you are interested in adding your timings to this table, email us with the full output of
running the test, along with a description of your hardware, the
output of uname -a and the version of the compiler (if any)
that you used to compile FSL. Note that a timing is not very
meaningful if you do not have enough RAM for the test to run without
needing to do any swapping.
FSL 4.1.0-5
Apple MacBook Pro 17' laptop 2.3GHz Intel Core i7 8GB (4 cores, 8 'threads') parallel running times:
1 at a time: 1127 real 1093 user
4 at a time (average timings): 1378 real 1335 user
8 at a time (average timings): 2312 real 2193 user
Conclusion: using all 4 cores nearly as fast as just 1, but not much point using more processes than cores.
