How well does labVIEW optimize itself to run on dual processors? (would be dual Xeon cpus without hyperthreading)

I am looking to get a new computer to run my labVIEW app. It is a processor intensive data analysis / simulation program. I am curious as to how well labVIEW optimizes its code to run on dual processor machines? Will I have to add some thread control code
to get the full benefit?

Hallo,
Normally just splitting your code into two parallel-executed loops would be enough for optimization for dual processor. If you have already available dual-processor computer, then try to make simple experiment: Put on your block diagram while-loop (without delay), then run it and looking for CPU usage. You will see, that only one processor occupied with 100% and second not (average CPU usage is 50%). Now put second while-loop (also without delay). Now both processors are busy with 100% (but both loops executed with approximately same speed). In most cases "two-loops" splitting of your analysing algorithm will be enough for increasing performance (not twice, of course, but significally).

  • How well does Final Cut Pro X run on an off-the-shelf 21.5" iMac?

    I'm looking at purchasing an iMac for video editing projects but my budget is very limited. How well does a plain-jane iMac 21.5" (SATA 5400 RPM Drive, Iris Pro Graphics, 8 GB RAM) run FCPX?
    Currently at my office I'm running FCPX on a Mid-2010 model with the 3.06 Core i3, 4GB of RAM and a Radeon HD 4670 256 MB. It is more than adequate for my needs in both FCPX and Motion 5. Will the current base model compare favorably to the one I'm already using?

    Yup, depends on simplicity and what you can "get away with".

    How to turn your computer into a Virtual (Personal)Router.
    Our hotel the Grand Oasis Cancun provided internet for only 36 hours and you could only use it on one device which comes to my next option as using your Laptop as a Personal Router to broadcast WiFi to any devices near your computer. Our room was on the Second level of the Pyramid at Grand Oasis and I was able to access it while at the VIP lounge below our room. Before our supposedly free internet service ended.
    I attempted using the hotel next door since I was getting a good signal from the Omni Hotel. They offered complimentary 24hr internet access using your browser as a way to track your use. Once you find the signal of the Omni it will open your browser I used Google Chrome, after it opens you go threw a few simple steps and your ready.
    I learned that after the 24 hours are up all you have to do is disconnect from their network, just run Ccleaner(free program) then find the Signal of the hotel and you will be given another 24 hours. What Ccleaner(<--download there) does is clears anything attached to your browser ie cookies temp files etc. it cleans your browser history giving you a way of not paying for the hotel fee of internet and giving you free WiFi. this is only if you are next to the Omni hotel :).
    What you need to download to turn your computer into a hotspot need to say is this little easy to use program Virtual Router. Once it has download test at your home to make sure it works with you devices. This will work with Tablets, Phones and other computers that cant find the Omni WiFi signal. Your welcome. To use it, is simple. Open program>make a password>select WiFi and start VR.

  • How well does final cut pro 7 run on the new iMac i7?

    I have the Mac Pro 1,1 - 2x3 GHz Dual-Core Xeon and I'm wondering if I would notice a better performance upgrading the computer. I do have the AJA Kona 2 for video output to HD screen but am willing to lose it for the nice 27" screen and a faster system.
    I do a lot of editing with RED 2k, lots of After Effects work, and sometimes color grading.
    Will I see better performance with the iMac i7? I've been waiting for a faster system tower but I'm not sure if Apple will design new ones. They may like to keep it small like the iMacs. It is space saving. Rendering is starting to feel old school.

    [How did this question get to FCPX category?]
    Thanks for your response.
    I think I'll back up my current Mac Pro and upgrade to Mountain Lion to see how FCP7 performs with the new OS. I keep searching for results online to see comparision from th Mac 27" i7 to my Mac Pro and get benchmarks numbers which are confusing. I can't find any  side by side comparisions. Also, my computer is not list in any results.

  • How well does a Macbook pro and a Macbook air run Xcode, Photoshop and Dreamweaver?

    How well does a Macbook pro and a Macbook air run Xcode, Photoshop and Dreamweaver?

    MacBook Pro - no problem, it is an extremely popular computer for running that software. Just look at the Adobe demo videos of their products, most of the time you can see a MacBook Pro running the software in their video.
    MacBook Air - should be just as good most of the time.
    However, if you get involved in heavy Photoshop work like highly stacked layers/masks/channels, 16 bits per channel or up, or merging HDR or panoramas, the MacBook Pro may be better because it can take 16GB RAM while the MacBook Air can take only 8GB RAM.
    Also, if you are going to do serious programming in XCode or Dreamweaver, you may find the MacBook Air screen to be too small for all of the code windows and tool palettes that you may want to open and arrange in those programs. The 15" Retina screen of the MacBook Pro will let you spread out your work and do less window switching. The 11/"13" MacBook Air screens are both smaller and non-Retina so not as sharp.
    Even Photoshop is nicer on the 15" MacBook Pro because of the extra screen space for the image with less intrusion by the tool palettes.
    In short, if you are a casual user the MacBook Air will be great. If you are a professional with a heavy workload the MacBook Pro may be more efficient overall due to the larger screen and higher RAM capacity.

  • Was wondering how well does the 1Ghz titanium runs Leopard?

    Hi
    Could some one put up a youtube video of how well leopard runs on the last titanium g4?
    I mean the minimum for leopard is 800mhz ... but how well does it actually run? is it worth purchasing leopard if you have 1Ghz?
    Thanks
    Chris

    Hi, Nomad.c. How fast any OS runs on any computer is a lot more than you could reasonably expect to learn from any YouTube video.
    We've seen posts here from people who had installed Leopard even on Tibooks that didn't meet the minimum processor-speed requirement of 867MHz (not 800MHz). They seemed to be happy with it by and large, but they may have had reasonable expectations going in. It won't be faster than what you're running now, but it will have some new features; you may or may not find them valuable. But you'd better have your Tibook's RAM maxed out at 1GB, because Leopard is much greedier for RAM than Tiger or Panther. That means if you use RAM-hungry applications on top of Leopard, you're going to make greater use of virtual memory than you have up to now, and VM is many times slower than real RAM.

  • Aperture on a macbook - how well does it run?

    Hi,
    Out of curisoity, how fast does Aperture run on a macbook? I know, it is not officially supported, but regardless, it will install, but how well does it actually run when processing RAW files?

    Unfortunately we do not have a speedometer that measures application performance. However, numerous folks have commented subjectively with a wide variation of commentary. Review all the threads with Macbook in the title.
    Do note that later versions of application software historically have typically required stronger systems than earlier versions needed. I am not saying that v2 will be more demanding than v1 (because I do not know) but I will say that folks who configure a computer should be buying for the apps and OSs of the next 2-4 years moreso than for today's apps and OS.
    Also note that Apple officially considers the MacBooks inadequate to run Aperture. Any Aperture user who buys a MacBook should be intending only light Aperture usage (whatever "light" usage is).
    Personally buying a light duty laptop to run heavy duty graphics applications does not make sense to me, but quite a few folks seem intent to do so; the argument being that the MacBook would only be for field review, and a powerful desktop box would do the heavy Aperture work.
    Some interesting speed tests are at <http://www.creativemac.com/articles/viewarticle.jsp?id=43717> but unfortunately the apps used do not include Aperture.

  • How well does windows work?

    How well does windows work on a Mac? I am thinking of getting a mac book pro and I would want to use the MAC OSX most of the time but sometimes on the road I will need to use windows for work. If I install windows also how well does it work?? Have you had any problems?

    Lots of questions! I'll do what I can, I am newish to Macs and not an IT expert.
    I use a MacBook when out and about, it seems fine, better when I upped the ram and HD. I'm not sure whether "better" is the right term. The pro's bigger screen and keyboard may be useful - your choice. The MacBook is my choice because of weight and price, I'm not sure what to get next time. I think I prefer portability for travel and Mac Pro power for deskbased work. The graphics driver would be the deciding factor for Cad etc for me. Not an issue so far and it's a 2 year old MacBook.
    I did put a new hard drive in, the partitions were too small. A 250gb drib=ve is MUCH cheaper than a new machine, simple to install. I allowed the max XP partition at 30gb (FAT).
    AV - antivirus software for XP - essential to keep clean files.
    Leopard - run BootCamp and follow the instructions. It will tell you when to insert the XP disk etc. Mine was choosy about the XP version, you need a recent one. Early SP1 just don't work.
    I prefer to use BootCamp and not Fusion etc - simply to maximise the MacBook resources - it's not sharing anything. That may be why I can run the apps. You just need a little planning on what you are going to work on.
    Think that's all , as I said, I'm just a user.

    How Well Does The 13" MacBook Air Handle The Adobe Creative Cloud Apps?
    I'm A Visual Communication Student But I Would Like Extremely Portable Setup Hence The MacBook Air 13", The Main Program's I Use Are:
    Photoshop
    InDesign
    Illustrator
    And I Also Use Dreamweaver &amp; After Effects From Time To Time.....
    How Would A Top Spec 2013 13" Air Cope Running These Program's??

    What about the backpack? Did you have it in one often?
    College and notebooks = backpacks usually 9 times out of 10,  was that the case?
    Your MacBook Air doesnt like roommates in your backpack
    Many collects students or people in general are fond of using non-idealized backpacks (without a padded laptop compartment) along with their books. Sandwiching books around your notebook etc. is an extremely bad idea and can leads to your LCD screen being destroyed when heavy textbooks are pressing against same, or when dropping your backpack, these books slam into your Macbook causing great potential for damage.
    ~"large white blotch and pixilated lines running down the screen."
    That indicates a significant impact.
    ~~"They kept telling me it was "excess pressure". I told them it was impossible, it would be normal pressure"
    What do you mean by "normal pressure"   ANY pressure to the LCD is abnormal pressure.

  • How well does the TomTom app work?

    Let's hear it, how well does the TomTom app work compared to a dedicated GPS device? Are you using TomTom's special cat kit? Is there a way to load TomTom binary files (POIs) onto the iphone?

    I have used a Garmin Nuvi760 for about 2 years and have been very pleased. When TomTom had a sale for $50 and now seems to be $60, I bought it. I also bought a kensington car mount. (http://us.kensington.com/html/17546.html). I like it. with my 3GS, there is no need for the amplified TomTom car kit. The speech quality could be better but it's loud enough. I do like the on screen presentations a bit more than my Garmin. I'm still getting used to the interface. It's a real good thing that I can use my contacts file to set destinations. My next step is to go on an 800 mile trip this month and compare the two systems side by side. So far, TomTom has not always made the best route choice and once sent me to the right address in an adjoining city. (This is southern Cal) Not good, but these are map issues which will always be evolving. Is it worth it? Yes. At $100, maybe. The good thing is that my phone is always with me and so is my GPS. I does put a drain on the battery, so it should be on charging while using in a car.
