Gentle persons: While measuring latency on a number of candidate computers lying around*, I have noticed the same phenomenon reported by others. The longer I let the latency test run, the more likely are the latency numbers to show up any undesirable behavior. In some cases, a cpu/motherboard-combo that looked great after the "at least 15 minutes" suggested on the Wiki started looking shabby after a hour or so even when not being hammered by glxgears, etc.
Hence this modest suggestion: when reporting latency numbers to this list or to the list on the Wiki, please note how long you let the test run. Thanks in advance. Regards, Kent *trees grow rings, I accumulate computers. Like tree rings, you can tell which were good years and which were bad by the size of the computers! ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
