Kula66 Posted January 3, 2005 Posted January 3, 2005 Anyone know how LO runs on an Intel Xeon setup? They have a big cache on chip, so that should help alot ... Also, any plans to make LO multi-threading? This is definately the way to go ... despite the significantly more complex coding ... Thanks, James

LO runs ok, nothing spectacular though. I get fairly steady framerates although don`t know how much of this is dependent on the CPU rather than the GPU.
Kula66 Posted January 3, 2005 Author Posted January 3, 2005 Wow ... If you don't mind me asking ... whats the freq and cache size on that pair? And which video card do you use? When it runs, is one CPU flat out and the other idle? Thanks, James

When it runs, is one CPU flat out and the other idle? Thanks, James Well the FSB frequency is 533 MHz. 512kb L2 cache and 1mb L3 cache on each CPU and the video card is an ATI x800 XT PE. The newer Xeons go slightly higher in all these figures so they may perform slightly better. In terms of CPU usage I haven`t really looked into it, but just checking out Win task Manager when LO is running generally shows a 30 - 40 % load on the CPU's.
