I have an AMD Athlon 2200+, 256MB, running SuSE 9.0. I get 4.58s/TS, which Astro seems to think is fairly slow (in comparison to my Athlon 2500+, 512MB, XP, which does 3.50 s/TS). If anyone is running a similar rig, SuSE/256/2200+, could they please post their s/TS to let me know if the apparent slowness is the fault of the rig or my [very] basic linux skills. BTW, KDE System Guard (task manager) shows hadsm* taking ~95% of CPU time.
Cheers,

PeterV.

One of my boxes is a xp2000+ running suse9.1 and it consistently reports ts in the range 4.2 to 4.8. It has 512MB ram. For comparison, I've also got an athalon axia-y (1GHz clocked via the fsb to 1.33) (also running suse9.1) with 256MB reporting on avg 8.4s/ts, and another machine with a gig of ram that identifies itself as i686 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 2800+ running gentoo returning 2.34 s/ts

So your s/ts sounds about right.

My Athlon XP 3000+ 512MB running SuSe 9.1 is currently getting 2.91 s/TS.

I'm a linux novice running this on my first self build - I've really no idea whether I've optimised performance, but this number seems in line with yours.

Haven't discovered system guard yet. I'll check it out.

Hi

Once you're a little more familiar with your system, you might want to try
CFLAGS="-O2 -march=athlon-xp -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe" in /etc/make.conf and rebuild your kernel (the -march=athlon-xp is athalon-xp-specific optimizations)

KeeperC&gt;system guard
Press Ctrl-ESC, it seems to be the equivalent of the 'doze Task Manager.
Cheers,

I have an Athlon XP 2500+ and I get about 2.77 s/TS. I have Slackware 10 with a self compiled 2.6.8-rc2 kernel on an NForce2 mobo. I also compiled BOINC myself which improved my benchmarks, but shouldn't have any effect on CPDN.
