Is it preferable to use the regular 0.6 release or the autobuild for the benchmark?

Is it preferable to use the regular 0.6 release or the autobuild for the benchmark?

Performance should be almost identical but the autobuild does obviously give you the latest game to play. In terms of the Big Benchmark in particular the script that runs it in the autobuild includes some improvements that I submitted specifically for making benchmarking easier.

Still, the main readon to use the autobuild is because it's a better game!

Still, the main reason to use the autobuild is because it's a better game!

True that! It's nice to be able to see improvements being made on a daily basis.

On an off-topic note, is there any kind of changelog for the autobuild? I'd like to see just what goes on in Xonotic's development.

http://git.xonotic.org/?p=xonotic/xonotic.git;a=summary

auto build is based off of the git ... so here is the history of all the changes ... ever ... all of them ...


note that autobuild may be a day or two behind what you see here

Ok, thanks Hutty.
I reran the benchmark using a new graphics driver and the 1375 autobuild.

System: Gateway LT4004u
CPU: Intel Atom N2600 (1.6GHz dual-core)

Notes: Using Display1_DownScalingSupported hack to reach 1024x768

My previous benchmark results are invalid, due to counting the 1-second average framerate instead of using the correct (and lower) values.

I updated the Wiki page with the results that were posted here: http://dev.xonotic.org/projects/xonotic/...quirements

I updated the Wiki page with the results that were posted here: http://dev.xonotic.org/projects/xonotic/...quirements

Yay, I have the lowest 3 results! ...and 5 of the lowest 7 results! Worth doing to prove what doesn't work.

Yeah, that's the spirit! Everyone going to be in top-5 ... pfff, why not go for bottom-5

Well my main system is 13th and most of the configs I have run on was just to see how they worked rather than making it playable. Go on, try and beat my low score!

I really wonder why my benchmark runs don't qualify for making it into the table...

I think he may only have edited in the recent ones. This thread is long and some people have added their results before and other people haven't. I have some results from systems dating from the early modern period through to the Crimean war and they've not been added either.

Oh, I just wen't back to when I posted my results here, and added everything after that. Thought that the table was up-to-date until then, but it seems I was wrong

Thanks for posting the results; I updated the wiki page accordingly: http://dev.xonotic.org/projects/xonotic/...quirements

Seems like your performance dropped a bit compared to your previous benchmark on "WisdomLikeSilence", although it should have increased given the faster CPU. Any ideas? =)

Seems like your performance dropped a bit compared to your previous benchmark on "WisdomLikeSilence", although it should have increased given the faster CPU. Any ideas? =)

The CPU actually isn't any faster, I just misreported the clock speed last time. (-_-;;)

As for the performance drop, I'm not sure if it's the changes to the AMD driver or what. I'll try manually disabling Aero and running the numbers again.

Edit: Disabling Aero didn't help noticeably. Not sure if it's the new animation features or changes under the hood in the video drivers. Either way, I'll be backing off from Ultimate settings for now.

Table could use a bit of cleanup, certain information about core count of some CPUs is misleading.

For example i7 2600K is listed in 2 different systems, once as having 4 cores and once as having 8 cores.
Problem is "HyperThreading" which makes amount of threads a CPU can handle more than actual physical core count (2 per core).

Ie. i7 2600K is quad core processor, but has HT, therefore can handle up to 8 threads at once. Same deal with i7-920, 930 or 960. Core i3-2100 also has HT, but has 2 physical cores, therefore can handle up to 4 threads.

Also, certain CPUs are listed as having "?" number of cores. All processors marked that way in this table (Athlon XP's, Sempron 2800+) are single core.

As my "Owl" just broke down mysteriously due to some hardware error, I was forced to set up my previous PC "whisper" again and did a benchmark run on that one. Though being fairly dated already, it performs quite well.

So far my attempts to use the radeon 6750M on this machine have not resulted in more FPS, I need to configure X properly and even when I thought I had done so the result was less FPS with the open source drivers... I'll re-post once I can run Xonotic on the radeon GPU instead of the integrated i915 chipset.

Oh, and "Owl" is back up and running after removing CMOS battery and letting it sit for a while :oD

EDIT:
I found out that only one core of my CPU runs at 3.3GHz and the other two at 0.8GHz when I´m running Xonotic. Does this mean that Xonotic only uses one core of the CPU?

yes. unless you use sdl (and in this case it just offload some sound related tasks) more or less: darkplaces is a single core engine.
