1) Questions and Answers : Unix/Linux : the difference between 32bit- and 64bit-code (Message 7290)

hi

this is difference:

self-compiled 64bit boinc on an athlon64 3200+:
Benchmark results:
2005-01-04 16:28:21 [---] Number of CPUs: 1
2005-01-04 16:28:21 [---] 1479 double precision MIPS (Whetstone) per CPU
2005-01-04 16:28:21 [---] 3854 integer MIPS (Dhrystone) per CPU
2005-01-04 16:28:21 [---] Finished CPU benchmarks


precompiled package boinc_4.13_i686-pc-linux-gnu:
Benchmark results:
2005-01-14 17:42:24 [---] Number of CPUs: 1
2005-01-14 17:42:24 [---] 1068 double precision MIPS (Whetstone) per CPU
2005-01-14 17:42:24 [---] 2702 integer MIPS (Dhrystone) per CPU
2005-01-14 17:42:24 [---] Finished CPU benchmarks


so the 32bit runs only at 72% at double precision and only at 70% at integer of the speed of a 64bit.
system: athlon64 3200+, gentoo, 32bit emulation

maybe a 64bit version would speed up calculations and maybe its worth a thought;-)

thanks for your answer. I tried what you supposed, but as expected he told me that he his not able to execute the 32bit-binary. are there any plans to release a 64bit-version of cpdn?

Hi
I'am trying to start cpdn on my athlon64 3200+ runnung 64bit gentoo, last emerge sync today. This is what the client told me when trying to start cpdn:

Message from server: platform 'x86_64-pc-linux-gnu' not found

So, what does this mean exactly, and what can I do or has to be done, for running cpdn on an x86_64-pc-linux-gnu machine

thanks for your help
