Many of you already know that not all procs are created equal and one will certainly perform better than another givin what project/core its running on. This is a work in progress as data is compiled into what is hopefully a user friendly device to aid in what flags to run to maximise production for a givin platform. Since most of my experience is in the socket A platform, Im gonna start with data pertaining to those first. Then I'll move on to other platforms and with the help of outside reference, an accurate depiction of what can be expected in terms of production may be constructed. Im going to be giving these results in ppd/ghz (points per day per gigahertz). From left to right> project number, what the project is worth, the ppd/ghz, and the type of project it is. Also memory specs could and probably do play a role here, so added is memory used as well:
Okay for the socket A cores runing pc 2100 memory speed:
Tbreds and palaminos: Figured in relation to 1 ghz
638 = 239 ppwu = 86 ppd/ghz Tinker
741 = 148 ppwu = 32 ppd/ghz Gromacs
1132 = 241 ppwu = 85 ppd/ghz Tinker
1136 = 241 ppwu = 85 ppd/ghz Tinker
1139 = 241 ppwu = 85 ppd/ghz Tinker
1282 = 72 ppwu = 45 ppd/ghz Gromacs
1312 = 254 ppwu = 77 ppd/ghz BP Gromacs
1140 = 600 ppwu = 87 ppd/ghz BP Gromacs
1475 = 364 ppwu = 74 ppd/ghz BP Gromacs
1476 = 364 ppwu = 77 ppd/ghz BP Gromacs
1605 = 78 ppwu = 50 ppd/ghz Gromacs
Barton Cores Aslo PC 2100:
957 = 48 ppwu = 58.75 ppd/ghz Gromacs
1123 = 237 ppwu = 81.40 ppd/ghz Tinker
1136 = 241 ppwu = 85.13 ppd/ghz Tinker
1137 = 241 ppwu = 83.04 ppd/ghz Tinker
1139 = 241 ppwu = 86.23 ppd/ghz Tinker
1141 = 600 ppwu = 89.77 ppd/ghz BP Gromacs
1285 = 73 ppwu = 46.34 ppd/ghz Gromacs
1316 = 343 ppwu = 95.82 ppd/ghz BP Gromacs
1321 = 346 ppwu = 100.58 ppd/ghz BP Gromacs
1322 = 302 ppwu = 84.28 ppd/ghz BP Gromacs
1475 = 364 ppwu = 78.44 ppd/ghz BP Gromacs
1476 = 364 ppwu = 82.22 ppd/ghz BP Gromacs
Now Barton cores with 3200 memory:
1137 B-3200- 84.64 ppd/ghz Tinker
1136 B-3200- 87.18 ppd/ghz Tinker
1141 B-3200- 112.21 ppd/ghz BP Gromacs
1317 B-3200- 121.71 ppd/ghz BP Gromacs
1321 B-3200- 119.33 ppd/ghz BP Gromacs
1478 B-3200- 127.47 ppd/ghz BP Gromacs
On tinkers there is almost no difference at all in production regarding memory. But for gromacs, notably BP's, there is on average of a 20% gain using 3200 memory over 2100. Perhaps you guys could help me a lilttle experiment: Take my numbers for the barton on 2100 and multiply by 1.23 and see if it closely relates to your producttion on BP's.
Lately Ive been folding with a couple of pentium M's.
Here's the results on those memory at pc 2700 speed
Dothan Core:
231 = 64 ppwu = 72.34 ppd/ghz Gromacs
234 = 52 ppwu = 60.43 ppd/ghz Gromacs
741 = 149 ppwu = 62.98 ppd/ghz Gromacs
952 = 48 ppwu = 67.44 ppd/ghz Gromacs
1138 = 241 ppwu = 65.11 ppd/ghz Tinker
1140 = 600 ppwu = 158.72 ppd/ghz BP Gromacs
1141 = 600 ppwu = 159.57 ppd/ghz BP Gromacs
1276 = 46 ppwu = 57.00 ppd/ghz Gromacs
1314 = 302 ppwu = 153.19 ppd/ghz BP Gromacs
1325 = 310 ppwu = 154.89 ppd/ghz Bp Gromacs
1476 = 364 ppwu = 302.13 ppd.ghz BP Gromacs
1477 = 364 ppwu = 318.72 ppd/ghz BP Gromacs
1479 = 364 ppwu = 318.64 ppd/ghz BP Gromacs
1605 = 78 ppwu = 62.28 ppd/ghz Gromacs
1912 = 450 ppwu = 119.16 ppd/ghz QMD
Im using a celly D right now for testing, but im not gonna have any much usable data on it as it is only folding for a week (stabilty testing for a friend ) Perhaps some of you with A64's and P4 northy's and pressies, and cellys (different cores) and even P3's could post up with results to make this more complete Here's what Ive got now:
Celeron D 533 mhz memory is PC3200 speeds
1138 = 241 ppwu = 46.59 ppd/ghz Tinker
1317 = 343 ppwu = 101.16 ppd/ghz BP Gromacs
1318 = 343 ppwu = 102.99 ppd/ghz BP Gromacs
1140 = 600 ppwu = 68.09 ppd/ghz BP Gromacs
1900 = 125 ppwu = 97.90 ppd/ghz QMD
1912 = 450 ppwu = 93.65 ppd/ghz QMD
A64 3200+Newcastle at 200 MHz 3-3-3-8
240 38 ppwu = 58.3 ppd/ghz Gromacs
242 32 ppwu = 57.9 ppd/ghz Gromacs
249 158 ppwu = 55.4 ppd/ghz Gromacs
981 168 ppwu = 167 ppd/ghz DGromacs with variance between runs ~5 ppd
983 138 ppwu = 145 ppd/ghz GBGromacs
1477 364 ppwu = 167 ppd/ghz BPGromacs
1478 364 ppwu = 167.6ppd/ghz BPGromacs
1481 364 ppwu = 167 ppd/ghz BPGromacs
1551 108 ppwu = 57.6 ppd/ghz Gromacs
1554 134 ppwu = 56.4 ppd/ghz Gromacs
1405 234 ppwu = 55.0 ppd/ghz Gromacs
1705 56 ppwu = 62.1ppd/ghz Gromacs
2019 95 ppwu = 166 ppd/ghz BPGromacs
Perhaps some of you can add some data to this that have procs/cores not mentioned, and we could make a kind of guide as to what to expect out of a project/wu. Just make it in the same format as above and Ill cut and paste it
