Surprisingly (to me at least) we are seeing a speed improvement with a specialized version of dd (dcfldd) going against raw disks.
ie. dcfldd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/sdc bs=4k and dcfldd if=/dev/sdc of=/dev/null bs=4k
Bottleneck: Disk. You cannot really use something like dd or variants to benchmark your CPU. What you can do is comparing the encoding time of oggenc or so (but be sure to use the SSE2 mode in the 32-bit compilation mode before testing, because x64 uses SSE2 by default). -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
