Oh, by the way, I forgot to mention — just a tiny detail you might be curious of. I'm pretty sure you're running some old kernel, however in every kernel release there's a bunch of improvements and refactoring across all subsystems — power/cpu schedulers, kernel drivers, memory management, etc. So by using a later kernel you could make your calculations even faster. For more details see this https://kernelnewbies.org/LinuxVersions There's also per-thread malloc cache in glibc-2.26 which improves results of some benchmarks too. In general, if you want more performance, running latest software is recommended. _______________________________________________ xorg@lists.x.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: https://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: %(user_address)s
