tpe 0 Posted June 16, 2000 After upgrading (caugh) to w2k from NT4 sp6 I ran a couple of bench marks. I have not changed any of the settings, disks are set to dma all round. The hardware setup did not change. everything got slower (especially the disk mark nearly 50% slower) have a look at the clibench comparison below. this other relative computer computer performance Dhrystone 2.1 Performance 1088 1157 MIPS 94 percent Whetstone Performance 312 344 MFLOPS 90 percent Eight queens problem 1536 1654 pps 92 percent Matrix operations 24780 32379 k ops 76 percent Number crunch performance 33412 35651 k ops 93 percent Floating point performance 5213 5562 k ops 93 percent Memory throughput 146726 143872 kB/sec 101 percent Total 91 percent Drive C Drive C Read max 11302 18285 kB/sec Read average 10923 17624 kB/sec Read min 9360 17066 kB/sec Write max 12610 21244 kB/sec Write average 10673 20537 kB/sec Write min 9110 20398 kB/sec CPU usage 0 5 percent Anyone have any idea why?

wind 0 Posted June 16, 2000 Did you 'upgrade' from NT4 and install win2k over it or did you do a fresh install? I've heard win2k takes a performance hit aswell as other bad things when being upgraded from anything - a fresh install is allways best. Share this post Link to post
