I built new series using IPP4.1 and new Intel C++ compiler 9.0. Due to small source changes and version up of the compiler, it's slightly faster than r7 on my P4 Northwood and Prescott. app_info.xml and a client are included in each zip. YAOSCW-P-r8.1.zip YAOSCW-N-r8.1.zip YAOSCW-B-r8.1.zip YAOSCW-W-r8.1.zip YAOSCW-K-r8.1.zip YAOSCW-0-r8.1.zip and the source is YAOSCW-r8.1-src.zip as for processor/name relationships see this page Luckiest in the world.

I don't know about anyone else, but I see no relationship between the page you linked to and the file names ... |

The relevent part of the file name are the P, N, B, W, K, and 0 letters. |

YAOSCW-P-r8.1.zip - QxP = P4 SSE3 YAOSCW-N-r8.1.zip - QxN = P4 SSE2 only YAOSCW-B-r8.1.zip - QxB = Pentium M SSE2 YAOSCW-W-r8.1.zip - QxW = P4 SSE2 AMD64 YAOSCW-K-r8.1.zip - QxK = P3 SSE AMD-XP YAOSCW-0-r8.1.zip - No Option = P2 MMX Hope that helps. Dusty |

I'm trying the K version now on an AMD Duron (morgan core) with SSE. It's running fine. Ned *** My Guide to Compiling Optimised BOINC and SETI Clients *** *** Download Optimised BOINC and SETI Clients for Linux Here *** |

I'm giving the P-version a try on my p4-prescott. Seems to be running fine. Thanks for another speedup. :) Greetings, Speedy67 [edit:] Of course also mirrored here. :) |

The v7 -B version was working wonderfully on my 1.8 Pentium M (Dothan). I've updated to the new r8.1 and am crunching away now. Thanks again, Tetsuji!! |

One of my XPs improved in FP speed, seven decreased slightly. All improved in Integer speed. My A64 remained basically the same on both. Thanks. |

thanks to Tetsuji Maverick Rai my P4 3.2 at 2.0 2 2 5 Twinmos Syster, and an I875 Mobo http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/results.php?hostid=56765&offset=20 and my Athlon64 3.200+ on an S754 Mobo with the good Twinmos BH5 Chips also running at 2.0 2 2 5 http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/results.php?hostid=318394 that means my P4 do 2 WUs at 1:45, and my Athlon64 about 1:12 :) Greetings from Germany NRW Ulli S@h Berkeley's Staff Friends Club m7 © |

This was a change to the SETI application, not the BOINC core client. There would have been no changes to your benchmark scores, just to your SETI@home processing times! Take a look and see if those systems crunch a WU any faster with the new YAOSCW r8.1 application running. |

I was not clear enough in my message. The lower benchmarks were a result of implementing the "optimized" 4.45. I am also running the "optimized" SETI client. I will have to review the processing times when several WUs have been processed. Thanks. |

Then why did you not post that in the thread about the optimized 4.45? Thread: http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=15633 98SE XP2500+ @ 2.1 GHz Boinc v5.8.8 And God said"Let there be light."But then the program crashed because he was trying to access the 'light' property of a NULL universe pointer. |

The K version is good on my Duron (Morgan core) and a couple results have now validated. Slight increase in speed, I've not run a benchmark so I can't say exactly how much. I will migrate the rest over this weekend :) Good work Mav, Ned *** My Guide to Compiling Optimised BOINC and SETI Clients *** *** Download Optimised BOINC and SETI Clients for Linux Here *** |

YAOSCW-P-r8.1.zip - QxP = P4 SSE3 According to the horse's mouth, AMD supports SSE3 instructions on...: Athlon 64 Athlon 64 X2 Opteron And Athlon 64 FX has SSE2 support. I didn't check any others, so I don't know if there are more. |

No, the FX series only support SSE2 so far it seems. (see below) |

SSE3 was added to the latest core versions for Athlon 64, Athlon 64 FX and Opteron. Like Intel, it's hard to know what your CPU really supports, since they've changed featuresets within CPU classifications. At tool like CPU-Z is great for checking the details. Here's an FX-55 with SSE3 support, San Deigo core here. |

Just a heads up - for my amd64 linux client, adding SSE3 support for the latest Athlon64 Venice cores (that support it) made no difference over the SSE2 enabled version. I believe Metod and Maverick have seen the same thing on their Linux Intel P4 clients. So I wouldn't be surprised if the same were true for Windows clients. Don't expect a huge improvement (or any for that matter) from an SSE3 enabled client (over SSE2) just because your CPU supports it.
