Re: Processor Benchmarks
According the latest contributions your estimation looks quite accurate.Joost Buijs wrote: ↑Sat Jul 14, 2018 4:39 pm It depends solely on what you are going to do with it. I assume they are taking multithreaded performance into account (6 cores vs 4 cores), for a single threaded program the difference will be less. The ICP improved maybe 20% over the last 8 years, so the difference in clock frequency + 20% will be a good estimate for a single threaded program.
90% of coding is debugging, the other 10% is writing bugs.
