In the 64-bit version, the only differences are http mode and printing
the time on start-up.
For the 32-bit version, 1.1.0 has http mode (without spurious warnings
about code 100). It is also faster when using MMX on FreeBSD, due to
proper alignment of MMX variables. And the Windows port is faster due
to recompilation with gcc 2.95.
Here are some speed ratings observed:
25 k 150 MHz Pentium Pro Linux gcc 2.95
33 k 200 MHz Pentium Pro Linux gcc 2.95
40 k 275 MHz StrongARM Linux gcc 2.95
68 k 300 MHz Alpha EV4 Digital Unix cc 5.7 -tune ev5 (!)
90 k 450 Mhz PowerPC G3 Linux gcc 2.95
100 k 450 Mhz PowerPC G3 MacOS X gcc ???, cache enabled
104 k 300 MHz Pentium II FreeBSD gcc 2.95 with MMX
120 k 400 MHz Pentium II FreeBSD gcc 2.95 with MMX
139 k 333 MHz UltraSPARC-IIi Solaris cc 5.0
143 k 450 MHz Pentium III FreeBSD gcc 2.95 with MMX
151 k 500 MHz Pentium III FreeBSD gcc 2.95 with MMX
171 k 400 MHz Alpha EV5 Digital Unix cc 5.7 with feedback
178 k 433 MHz Alpha EV5 Linux gcc 2.95
207 k 500 MHz Alpha EV5 Linux gcc 2.95
218 k 500 MHz Alpha EV5 Digital Unix cc 5.7 with feedback
262 k 600 MHz Alpha EV5 Digital Unix cc 5.7 with feedback
310 k 500 MHz Alpha EV6 Digital Unix cc 5.9 with feedback
If anybody can reproducibly get better scores, let us all know how!
Bye,
Rob.
