Anyone with a Pentium III Tualatin?

[roelof]

Is anyone running SETI@home on a Pentium III Tualatin (the most recent P3 with 512 kB on-chip L2 cache)? If so, would you mind posting some SETI@home processing times for a 0.417 angle range (AR) work unit? Also, tell me the CPU speed and multiplier (or RAM speed). I need this information to improve the efficiency table and graph on the SETI Spy web site.

i think someone around here has a laptop with one... lemme do a search


EDIT: i really need to subscribe to get the better search funktion...

i benchmarked my old laptop in september/october. but i can't find that post.

I had a tualitin core PIII800 laptop that was doing SETI and averaging 5hr18 minute WUs, but I couldn't tell you what a .417 WU was doing. I'll check the history when I get to work tomorrow.

[edit] it was a PIII800-M, tualitin core.[edit]

Hi roelof,

I have a SetiSpy related question: For Palomino Athlons, is its efficiency and calibration data same as the Thunderbird core? If not, I am willing to do the calibration and submit the data for you, thanks.

I've got a P3-M 866mhz notebook. To answer your question, I don't remember the exact times, but it could finish any WU in 5:30 to 6:30. Very nice CPU. It even had a 4:02 WU once 🙂

serialb, I expect it to be somewhat different. It would be great if you can do the calibration and submit it!

I am working on it. Once I have completed one each for low, mid and hi AR WU, I'll post it back here.

 

[roelof]

Thanks for everyone's contribution. The updated table and graph are now available.

you know what I just noticed....







the Itanium is less effecient than a 486DX in x86 mode:Q

I can't wait to see a clawhammer come around with 1MB cache😀

Roelof,

AR calibration for Palomino Athlons are finished. Here is the data:

LowARCalibration=5.42 1.36; 25.09 22.39; 45.12 43.88; 50.15 49.69; 85.08 87.29; 95.24 95.79; 100.00 100.00;
MedARCalibration=5.23 2.47; 14.91 13.01; 45.11 48.42; 49.98 54.64; 80.25 89.10; 90.02 93.88; 100.00 100.00;
HiARCalibration=1.13 1.09; 10.07 10.35; 45.08 46.88; 50.27 50.70; 90.08 92.15; 95.19 97.06; 100.00 100.00;

If you want the raw data or excel graphs for it, let me know and I'll email it to you.
