Seeing performance differences on single vs multi-core
We are seeing some significant performance differences on single vs
multi-core processors on AMD chips. We have a database application that we are running on XP which also does regression analysis. I have asked the manufacturer of the software if they have seen this, but they have not. They are using Clarion from SoftVelocity to build the application. on some systems I know the core others I do not AMD Athlon Socket 939 (single) 4000+ 102 secs AMD Athlon 64 X2 (Toledo) (single) 4800+ 145 secs AMD Athlon 64 (Unknown) (dual) 3500+ 184 secs AMD Black Edition (Brisbane) (dual) 5000+ 780 secs (Overclocked to 3GHz) AMD Athlon 64 (Brisbane) (dual) 5200 + AMD Quad Phenom 9950 810 secs We then installed the application on an operating system installed as guest in VMWare AMD Quad Phenom 9950 92 secs Any idea on what is going on here. This really doesn't make sense. I would expect maybe a little performance hit but 5 to 6 times different.. The only hint I can see of the issue may be the run made on the Toledo. While it's clock speed is faster It's performance is still worse than a 4000+. My understanding is that a Toledo is a dual core with one core disabled. |
