So, I am doing some runs with the latest distributed.net client, version 517, dated 2010-06-28. It still doesn’t have processor detection available that works with Magny-Cours systems, and instead detects them as having a processor with tag equal to “40010001”. Magny-Cours has been around for over six months now, so I would have expected these guys to have gotten the processor detection for them by now.<\/p>\n
Anyway, I am running the client on a quad-socket Magny-Cours system we have that has quad AMD 6174’s, running at 2.2ghz. Looks like I am getting in the range of 350M keys\/sec, which is pretty damned good. I ran this same test on a similar machine about six months ago, and was only able to get about 305M keys\/sec. Not sure if this is because it is a different machine with significantly more RAM (128GB) or if the updated client is a bit better in performance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
