There's more to Photoshop than a single blur filter.

Wow, I think you need to re-run the test. There is no way your computer should be slower than mine. Here are my results:

Pentium II 400 Mhz
384 MB ram
Photoshop 7

12 minutes 30 seconds

Also, I'll be building a new system with an E6600 this week (I've had this one for eight years), so I'll make a more relevant (to the thread topic, at least) post then.

I dropped a GB of RAM and exact same time as above, hmm...

And OC to 2.5, 33 seconds.
 
On my sempy 64 @ 2.4, 1:12 using CS2. 1GB DDR400.

I think the guy who got 22min with his Pentium M is using Photoshop 6 which probablly handicaped his result.
 
21 here, with the set up in my siggy, seems like this might be gpu limited too?


edit** using cs2 with w/e update it makes u do when u dl it- just downloaded it 😛
 
34 sec on A64 x2 4800+ Toledo running CS2

Is that too slow?

after clean install windows xp I timed at 28 sec not bad what do you think? 🙂

That's a sweet rig!
What in god's name do you use it for?
Also, how fast can you do this photoshop test with your rig?

that rig will be able to play any game that comes out in the next 5 years with just video card upgrades!!!!!!
 
74 seconds with an A64 3500+ venice, 2 Gigs PC4200, everyting running stock speed. I will compare it to my other PC (E6300) shortly.
 
Ok folks I've done a little survey of results here's what I've found:

old Athlon XP >2min
A64 single @ 2.4/5 do this in 1:10-1:15 seconds
X2 @ 2.4/5 do this in 30-35 seconds
C2D @ 3Ghz+ do this in 25-30 seconds
Kensfield @ 2.5 or so do this at 15-17 seconds
