A new CPU Benchmark: Multi Threaded PI @ LINPACK

[nurvvision]

I developed a multithreaded CPU Benchmark, featuring excellent parallelization & optimization across multiple CPU's / cores.

Multi Threaded PI is a CPU benchmark that calculates PI decimals using Bailey–Borwein–Plouffe formula. Default setting for benchmark is 80000 decimals.

The core algorithm is written in C++ and provide excellent parallelism. The UI is written in Delphi.

Multi Threaded LINPACK

Multi Threaded LINPACK is a multithreaded CPU benchmark that performs numerical linear algebra. It makes use of the BLAS (Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms) libraries for performing basic vector and matrix operations. Default setting for benchmark is a Matrix size of 4000.

!!! Work in progress !!!

that benchmark sounds very interesting

 

[NTMBK]

Sooo... who wants to check the binary for viruses/NSA keyloggers?

 

[Makaveli]

Here are my results.

Not going to bother adding any screenshots of the temps because this benchmark run is so short and doesn't put enough load on my cpu to cause temps to go up.

My chip runs pretty darn cool for Haswell, but this seems wrong...

 

[SlimFan]

Do you check the final result that's generated to ensure that it ran properly and actually calculated PI?

 

[BallaTheFeared]

Duh wut?

 

[NTMBK]

Do you check the final result that's generated to ensure that it ran properly and actually calculated PI?

And not, say, generated a copy of your Bitcoin wallet?

 

[BallaTheFeared]

LTC wallet is offline on a Linux distro, they'll never get my lucky charms!

 

[Yuriman]

4.8GHz, didn't break 57c on the hottest core.

MULTI THREADED PI @ LINPACK - UNIFIED BENCHMARK

Multi Threaded PI is a multithreaded CPU benchmark that calculates PI decimals using Bailey&#8211;Borwein&#8211;Plouffe formula. Default setting for benchmark is 80000 decimals.

Multi Threaded LINPACK is a multithreaded CPU benchmark that performs numerical linear algebra. It makes use of the BLAS (Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms) libraries for performing basic vector and matrix operations. Default setting for benchmark is a Matrix size of 4000.

The core algorithm for benchmark is written in Visual C++ and provide excellent parallelism. The UI is written in Delphi XE 5.

Lol. You're really wary of this, huh?

Why was the last thread closed? Or is this that thread?

From what I saw on this thread the mods closed it temporary because of a discussion about it. No other details were provided and it has been reopened.

I must say there are some really trusting people here.
I for one am quite leery about installing unknown software on my machine from a newly registered poster. But to each his own.

I tested this software on another machine before it was done on my primary machine and everything looked ok.

I know this is the internet but sometimes you need to have alittle faith not everyone is some scum bag trying to do bad things.

How did you test the software? I hope it was more systematic than running a virus scan and making sure your system didn't blow up. If you don't mind me asking, how did you determine there are no built in trojans?

I have a older machine that I keep around for stuff like this.

Multiple scans with virus and trojan scanners.

The machine has no internet access.

There is also minimal processes running on this computer so kept an eye out for anything that looked weird with process explorer.

First inital test was also done in a VM before I tried it on the machine.

All of this was good enough for me to determine it was safe.

However someone else may determine that is not enough and that is your decision to try it or not.

To each his own.

 

[BallaTheFeared]

I just ran it because I'm fearless.

would expect nothing less from you its the reason you're a Balla

Hopefully the author did not add anything nefarious to the coding. But you should also keep in mind that virus scans will only detect known malware. The author may have the skill to create his own malware and that would not be detected via virus scan. Best of luck to you though.

 

[Sable]

one assumes that's why the thread was closed.

one also assumes that the reason the thread has been reopened is because the OP has presented his credentials and shown the mods that there is nothing nefarious about the software.

If this is this is the case it would have been nice of the mods to let us know.
