Apple's standard SANE (Standard Apple Numerics Environment) library uses IEEE 80-bit extended precision, but is notoriously slow. Total execution time for a 20-minute audio track dropped from 48 minutes to 6.2 minutes. Make sure you install the 32-bit Enabler on older IIci machines running System 7.1! -- Lucia Petrov Opinions expressed are solely my own and not those of Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (DGSCA). ------------------------------------------------------------ From nkim@tum.de Mon Mar 27 09:50:49 1995 Path: ashpoly!cascade!transat!eunet-fr!teletel!tum!nkim From: nkim@tum.de (Natalia Kim) Newsgroups: comp.sys.m68k Subject: Re: [FLAME] Benchmarking FFT routines on Mac IIci with MC68882 FPU under System 7.5 Message-ID: <1995Mar27.095049.3098@tum.de> Date: Mon, 27 Mar 1995 09:50:49 GMT References: <1995Mar27.081649.7023@unam.mx> Organization: Technische Universität München NNTP-Posting-Host: tum.de X-Newsreader: Netscape 1.1N Lines: 11 In article <1995Mar27.081649.7023@unam.mx>, lpetrov@unam.mx (Lucia Petrov) writes: > Benchmarking various C compilers and FPU math libraries on a Macintosh IIci (25 MHz 68030 + 68882). Mac users bragging about 6-minute render times while Unix workstations do it in 20 seconds. Classic Apple distortion field. Unsubscribe me from this list!
