currently it is 64 bit only, as he thinks that adds some advantage that is not there.

It's just because 32 bit last 20min in total... 64bit is much faster lol.
But I could try, so more setups can be tested.
Although, it will stay 64 bit for a while...
 
I do not believe that a bit. If the 32 bit execution is that much slower, then your programming is very sloppy. The only difference in speed should come from RAM access, which you yourself said it only uses 2.6GB maximum.

64-bit programs use 50% more ram, it's not only it can use "more" then 4gb ram. It just uses more ram...
 
That I know is complete crap. 64 bit programs in practice (at least ones from programmers that know what the heck they are doing) use the same amount of RAM to run. Sometimes even less. A 64 bit copy of IBT only needs 600MB to run, until you start testing, and then it uses however much you set it to. The 32 bit also needs 600MB to run. It can only test up to 4096MB though.

Check your programming language, and how you went about the problem. If you are not optimized, then it can likely need more RAM. If you do optimize it, chances are you can cut the RAM necessity by 50%.
 
There is a chance I may be able to test this on a hex-core 12-threaded Xeon. Got one downstairs in a HP G8 server (24GB of RAM too). If I speak nicely to Dad he may let me.

I'll MAYBE look into it and try to do what you're saying but man... I'm the programmer here, I designed it.
There's nothing wrong in my program and I want to stay 64 bit.
Most people use 64bit and more people will follow.
 
I know nothing about programming, but would it be possible to have a black hole which runs both, it would definately be interesting to see the difference in benchmarks between my six year old p4 and my 2 month old i3.
 
Actually I test to see if my computer can handle a ton of stress on CPU and stable in high stress. I make it one core, one thread. X16. DDR3 800, it is weird that i can overclock to 1833 MHz. Sometime BCLK is 500 MHz by automation. I test with 4 benchmark in one running. So I thought i had share my picture here.

If SmileMan doesn't mind I can maybe compile a 32-bit version of Black Hole and post it up here.

OK. If you want to release a 32-bit version, go right ahead. :)

Nope, I just made it can run 64bit and 32bit. It just runs 64bit when you got a 64x Windows, if you got 32x it'll run 32bit.
But I can assure you if you got a 64bit system you'll have higher scores!


Can you come skype, I think my upload limit on mediafire reached...
 
I know it is off topic but just want to advice. You can use Google Drive, it is 5 GB online free. Everyone not need Google account to be able to download.

You can upload it and throw a link on the thread here. I'll add it if it can be downloaded by everyone.

Why dont you try "jimdo.com", you can then make a website for the bench mark too and upload it to your site. Its all free.

Interesting, but I'm already making a website. And a bit more features on it like scores that update automatically and send it to the website making a nice scoretable of all that scores. :D
Something like 3Dmark.

If you want any help, I will be willing to opt in :) I don't know much but it would be a great chance to learn about programming and stuff :)
