Content Creation Winstone
2001 keeps multiple applications open at once and switches among those
applications. Content Creation Winstone 2001's activities focus on what we call
"hot spots," periods of activity that make your PC really work--the times where
you're likely to see an hourglass or a progress bar.
Business Winstone is a
system-level, application-based benchmark that measures a PC's overall
performance when running today's Windows-based 32-bit applications on Windows 98
ME, Windows NT 4.0 (SP6 or later), Windows 2000, Windows Me, or Windows XP which
runs real applications through a series of scripted activities and uses the time
a PC takes to complete those activities to produce its performance
scores.
Like in
SysMark2002, the Winstone benchmarks show a very significant performance boost
when the processor is overclocked!
SPECviewperf™ is a portable OpenGL performance
benchmark program written in C. It was developed by IBM. Later updates and
significant contributions were made by SGI, Digital and other SPECopcSM project group members. SPECviewperf
provides a vast amount of flexibility in benchmarking OpenGL performance.
Currently, the program runs on most implementations of UNIX, Windows NT, Windows
95/98 and Linux. Higher numbers equate to better performance.
A trend
is appearing, overclocking the P4 1.6A brings in some excellent results! Seems
the performance boost in SPECviewperf is approx. 20-25%.
