CPU for development work

For those of you, like me, considering a CPU upgrade for development work, here are some relevant benchmarks. The 16-core AMD Ryzen 7950X3D looks pretty good. In particular, the PHP build test is amazing; beating the 96-core AMD EPYC 9684X beast by a second for pole position.

AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D 16-Core at OpenBenchmarking.org:
Please share sources of other good compilation benchmarks.
 
Unfortunately, I think most developers (majority being dotnet/java/PHP focused) are DUMB. They don't really care about benchmarks. If they did, they would write good, optimized code.

Anyway, I found this: https://www.igorslab.de/en/amd-ryzen-9-7950x3d-gaming-and-workstation-review/9/

Not that good in Python 3.6 math operations.

However, @Saylick should like the performance in the Seismic data processing workload: https://www.igorslab.de/en/amd-ryzen-9-7950x3d-gaming-and-workstation-review/10/

Thanks for the link!

I think this plot is more applicable for my use case, so it doesn't look like V-cache would help too much. Of course, it really boils down to the application and no two structural analysis programs are alike.
