I've been doing plenty of performance evaluation on a parallel applicationActually, that was from an article from this last month that compared the dual core intel to the amd. for every dollar spent on the intel, you got about half the performance of the amd. Not bigotry. fact. But don't believe me or the other people who've seen the difference. Go buy the Intel box. No skin off my back. we're developing here : on Dual Core Opterons, P4, P4D. I can say that the Opterons open up a can of wupass on the Intel processors. Almost 2x the performance on our application vs. what the SpecCPU numbers would suggest. |
