Both machines have same disks performances (with hdparm, about 20 Mo/s). GCC versions: - on Intel : egcs-1.1.2-24 - on PowerPC: egcs-1.1.2-12c Bogomips: - on Intel : ~ 600 - on PowerPC: ~ 800 The test programs are dealing with run-length images processing. I was disapointed by the fact that the Intel machine ran 25% faster than the PowerPC machine. I thought that a G4-400 was worth a PIII-800 ... Maybe gcc including Alvitec patches will provide better performances ... -- /====================================================================/| | Stephane GEORGES | || | DALiM SOFTWARE GmbH R&D | Tel: +49 7851 9196 40 || | Strassburger Str.6 | Fax: +49 7851 7357 6 || | D-77696 | || | Kehl-Sundheim (Germany) | E-mail: sg@dalim.de || |____________________________________________________________________|/ ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list.
