I have found a couple small bugs in mprime V25 (for Linux) when I run it on my old AMD Athlon(tm) MP 2200+ dual cpu system.
1. It doesn't detect the clock speed correctly. It thinks the clock is 535 MHz when it should be 1800 MHz. This seems to also make it confused about what work is most suitable. 2. It seems to set the cpu affinity for both threads to 0 forcing both threads to run on CPU 0 and leaving cpu 1 idle. Here is the /proc/cpuinfo if it helps ... processor : 0 vendor_id : AuthenticAMD cpu family : 6 model : 8 model name : AMD Athlon(tm) MP 2200+ stepping : 0 cpu MHz : 1800.050 cache size : 256 KB fdiv_bug : no hlt_bug : no f00f_bug : no coma_bug : no fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 1 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 mmx fxsr sse syscall mp mmxext 3dnowext 3dnow ts bogomips : 3603.74 clflush size : 32 processor : 1 vendor_id : AuthenticAMD cpu family : 6 model : 8 model name : AMD Athlon(tm) Processor stepping : 0 cpu MHz : 1800.050 cache size : 256 KB fdiv_bug : no hlt_bug : no f00f_bug : no coma_bug : no fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 1 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 mmx fxsr sse syscall mp mmxext 3dnowext 3dnow ts bogomips : 3600.19 clflush size : 32 _______________________________________________ Prime mailing list Prime@hogranch.com http://hogranch.com/mailman/listinfo/prime
