Hi I have a K6-2 500 and a K6-3 450. Don't worry so much about the bogo mips, they don't tell the full story. The 15 hours sounds about right for the K6-2. I turn one unit around in just under 15hr. with the K6-2 (999 bogo mips) 128MB Ram. The K6-3 turns one around in just over 12 hours (897 bogo mips) 128MB. It's the chip arch./motherboard combo not the MHz that seems to make the difference. I have a buddy who turns one unit in ~8.25 hours on a PIII 450. Oh, both kernels are compiled with th K6 options enabled. SETI sure is a nice floating point benchmark isn't it. The K6 family does seem to be weaker in the FP department than the PIII. Does anyone have any Athalon times? How does SuSE 6.4 behave with the K7? Mike On Fri, 12 May 2000, tabanna wrote:
Hi, SuSErs :)
On a Pentium 133 mhz, 1 SETI work unit took 30.2 hours. On an AMD K6/2 1 SETI work unit takes 15 hours ______________
Linux rated the Pentium 133 mhz as 53 bogo mips Linux rates the AMD K6/2 500 mhz as 999 bogo mips ______________
Why does the AMD K6/2 500 mhz seem to be lazing around with the SETI work_units . . . SuSE 6.2 ain't 'Slackware' ? !
?
Maybe its a Floating Point matter, with Fast Fourrier Transform ?
Any views, please ?
