  1. Several submissions yesterday with an Athlon MP 2000 received no points. The submissions hung up during the calculation.

     

    Tried to recalculate this morning and the recalculation routine hangs. Is the calculation engine broken?

     

    http://www.hwbot.org/submission/2263669_

     

    Other submissions included PCMark 04 and 05 for the Athlon MP 2000.

    Neither of those two received points. The 2005 submission was submitted, but doesn't even appear in the lists, much less receive any points. What's wrong?

  2. If they had been on the same team, would it have then been a crime to share the same hardware component between two team members?

     

    If that is answered, "YES, it would then have been a crime", what if the sharing had been at a benching party at one member's home or at a hotel room in a central location, would the sharing then still be "a crime"?

     

    If the answer to the benchmarking party question is "NO, sharing at a party is fine with HWBot", what is the logic of making one form of sharing a crime and the other form of "Party sharing" not a crime?

     

    This is a serious inquiry. I don't know the answer to the above questions and would like some clarification. At one point in time prior to a previous revision there were some forum posts that indicated that party sharing was now perfectly "legal". Is that true?

  3. What effect does IOMeter have on Hard Drive General Usage and Virus Scan subtest scores?

     

    Does it pull them down, too?

     

    Or does the 15sec timing mean that IOMeter "kicks out" after that period of time automatically allowing the rest of the benchmark to run normally?

  4. Ticket ID: 1461

     

    Priority: Low

     

    It looks like we have a class for the Pentium 4 511J, but not for the plain Pentium 4 511.\r\n\r\nWould you please add one? I have one with benchmarks I\'d like to submit.\r\n\r\nHere is the information on it:\r\n\r\nhttp://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/Pentium_4/Intel-Pentium%204%20511%202.8%20GHz%20-%20JM80547PE0721MN%20-%20HH80547PE0721MN%20%28BX80547PE2800EN%29.html

  5. Got what you meant. What's not clear is why it matters to you? You run new hardware and collect tons of points like one of the 1%.

     

    Given all you have why should you begrudge the poor folks running old hardware who want to earn a point or two from the old benchmarks that were designed for the hardware we run.

     

    Seems petty, small minded, mean spirited and selfish. Greed just isn't pretty.

  6. PCMark04 is problematic with >2 core systems. It requires people to switch affinity during the benchmark, which makes it very/too complicated to be used as serious benchmark.

    At what point should affinity be switched during the PCMArk 04 benchmark on multi-cores.

     

    Is that required starting with dual cores or only for tri cores or more?

     

    And what is the affinity switch that is required?

     

    From all cores to only one OR from one core to all cores?

     

    Very interesting concept and brand new to me.
