CPUmark99 and modern processors

This is cool. I thought of a way to test my HT theory.

Open two instances of CPUmark99.

Put them side by side and start both of them. If you're fast you can get them both running in about 1 second or so.

Now this is cool. Normally with a HT or dual core system only one core will be used by this test and total cpu load will be around 50%.

By starting two tests at once you can load both physical and logical cpu, pegging cpu usage at 100%!

I think some of the dualies here will scream running two at once. I'm encoding some video now so I can't reboot but I would think with HT off my total score for two tests would be the same as for one.

I would also think that 3GHz Prescott would score like my Northwood with two instances running.

Okay guys, check it out and let's see what we can learn.
 
Dothan 2.0 in my work laptop

233

I hate the way it "feels" though compared to my p4 and opteron at home.
 
my 2.8 pressy scored 109 on each when i ran two and 161 when i ran one
so 218 score with 2 runnin, there are definetly LOTSA unused cycles in that big ass pipe
