PCM Benchmarks

Hi,
Can anyone please share information on their PCM system sizing in this thread? I have tried to locate information on PCM performance benchmarks but none seem to be available. Moreover, there is no published sizing formula available which we can use to collect information and convert it into numbers.
We have been suggested the following system sizing by one of the partners:
Application: 4 quad cores (16 cores) 32gb ram standard hard disk 500gb
Database: 2 quad core San storage 500gb expandable
Web servers: 1 quad core 16gb ram hard disk not relevant
We are going to run 3 models on these servers. We'll have 1 Primary and 2 Secondary servers. The Secondary Model servers will do the actual work, Primary won't be allocated any models.
What is your experience?
Thanks and regards,
Shehryar

I work for Troygroup. Pete's question has a very simple answer. If this is Windows 7, disable UAC. You can re-enable UAC once the PCM files are installed.
If this is Windows 8, it is a bit trickier. In addition to UAC you must also click on an administration button (with the shield icon) from within the driver. I usually click the one under the sharing tab in the driver, however this requires printer sharing to be turned off in order to see this button.
If you run into this problem on Windows 8 and have trouble send me an email: [email protected]
The best way to install Troys fonts as of 2014 is to use the MICR Printer Installer that we put together. It disables UAC, installs a printer and the PCM files. You can get this from the Troygroup website.

Problem with my MSI 290x gaming 4g performance in unigine valley benchmark.

First im dutch(netherlands) so sorry for my maybe bad english.
My system is:
Asus p8z77 v deluxe mb
intel 3770k cpu
16gb ram 1866 Corsair
2x ssd 256 gb OCZ
MSI 290x gaming
win7 64bit ultimate.
When i came home with my card i removed my old 7970 and replaced it with my new card.
Put some programs up like gpu-z cpu-z realtemp ext.
Then run Unigine-valley Benchmark with OC tool MSI at 1040 option.
My cpu at 4.2ghz OC
Score Unigine valley v1.0: 61.1 fps-score2558-min fps 30.3/max fps 112.8
Custom settings at 1920-1080 and ultra 8x aa windowed.
Seems ok result.
Now to problem i have.
So next i did (dumb me hehe) i try OC my CPU with All-suit II from ASUS to OC cpu extreme mode which stress test untill stable clock is found.
Got a crash bluescreen and then after few attemps stable 4.3.
Then did new benchmark and my score was alot lower and nomatter what i try my 290x did not pass 60fps any more and score dropped to 2100?
3dmark firestrike gave first time score of 9655 and after my disaster with cpu failed attemp 9200.
My card is stuck at 60fps max it won't get any higher?
The GPU-Z also show PCI-E 3.0 X16@ X1 1.1and when i activate render i see it only change to x16 1.1 i never see gen 3.0.
CPU-Z info motherboard also only pci-express link with x1 and x16
My questions is how can o solve this problem it seems my motherbaord don't reconize my videocard anymore?
Also posible that something with the OC attemp CPU broke something?
I also try change from AUTO to GEN3 in bios but then i get a blackscreen when i boot up it stays backscreen, have to change it switch videocards so i can see my boot again and go into BIOS.
Im at a lost here, hope one of you know a solution or whats my problem?
Hope ive supply enough info im bit of a newbie at this sorry for that.
Thanks in advance.

GT70 2PC: 870M does not activate, benchmarks and performance ingame confirm this

I bought myself a GT70 2PC Dominator (the SSD version) with an 870M inside, and after starting several games, checking benchmarks and comparing framerates to my current desktop machine (which has an i5 2500K and a GTX 770), I find that, even after configuring the machine to prefer the "powerful Nvidia processor", and setting all games to use the Nvidia processor, it still uses the 4600 processor. I'm getting rather low framerates, I'm not hearing any fan speed increase, Benchmarks ingame like the one from Sleeping Dogs still report the 4600 GPU and some games won't even boot up properly (like Just Cause 2). I did configure all the games to use the Nvidia GPU in my Nvidia Control panel, I updated my drivers, Device manager is finding both cards.
Is there a way to tell my laptop "Look, I don't care about saving my battery, I don't care about noise, I don't care about heat (as long as it does not damage anything), just ALWAYS use the Nvidia GPU, even when it's not needed, so I can actually have some enjoyment out of the 1600 EUR I spent on this machine"?

Check your power button light and see if it lights red(red=dgpu, white=igpu) and make sure you've attached battery with AC plugged while playing games.
Fan speed is changing by different cpu/gpu temperature, so check the temperature and the fan speed in Dragon Gaming Center and compare the temperature and the fan speed under different situation.
Can you tell the graphics driver version you're using? (both Intel and NVIDIA one)
Sadly for the Optimus structure, you can't disable the single graphics but you should be able to use the dGPU to run the game. Except the settings in NVIDIA Control Panel, you can also try to right click on the shortcut of the game and choose "run with graphics processor"> "High-performance NVIDIA processor"

How to activate PCM/no sound when plugging in a DAC converter

Hi,
I recently bought a couple of Audioengine A5+ speakers for my Lenovo G505s laptop, and now I wanted to add a DAC converter to this setup. I connect the DAC to my laptop via a 3.5mm/optical cable, and then an RCA cable from the DAC to my speakers' inputs. However, I get no sound.
Now, with my DAC (a FiiO D3, by the way) came a small note saying "Please set the digital output of the audio source to PCM, otherwise there will be noise or no sound". I think this is my problem, but no matter how I look in the settings of my computer, I cannot find anywhere to choose this setting. Could someone please guide me here?
Thanks!

Standard troubleshooting steps in the following order:
1. Reset: Press the sleep/wake button & home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the apple logo, then release(ignore the slide to power off). If no change, proceed:
2. Restore your phone in itunes from your most recent backup. While this will restore a fresh OS, it will also restore the problem/problems if part of your backup. If no change, proceed:
3. Restore your phone as a "new" device in itunes & re-sync your itunes content. You will lose all saved data doing this.

Poor performance by Matlab and Windows benchmark tests

Hello
I have a Lenovo Thinkpad W520 with Windows 7 64bit installed. Compared to other Notebooks with comparable hardware, my Lenovo is very slow. To prove my thought, I carried through a Matlab (64bit) benchmark test and the Windows 7 benchmark test. In both tests, my Lenovo was worse than the other notebooks. During the tests I set the Power Manager to performance and activated the Lenovo turbo boost.
Now I want to ask, if there are any settings, perhaps in the bios, to speed the laptop up? Or why result such a bad performance although the hardware is very good?
Thanks for your help
Solved!

Thank you very much for your reply!
I dated up the BIOS from version 1.27 to 1.32. Now the benchmark tests all look great!!
Thanks

How Do I Detemine Maximum DVD Time For A PCM Audio DVD

I have been working with my CS2 Premiere to create some auto play, audio-only DVDs that are autoplay. To clear the air, yes I know that CS4 will permit 24bit-96 kHz. For the time being 16 bit-48 kHz will suffice as it has CD quality The bonus that a DVD format provides a greater playing times. So the object is to make a PCM audio only DVD.
Here is my problem: How to get really long playing time. I know I can make high quality, 2-channel (ordinary stereo) DVD-A's up to 3 hours using Minatonka Bronze. Unfortunately, DVD-A discs are worthless as they cannot play in 90% of DVD players, but they prove the time point. I would think that one should be able to make a conventional DVD, but with the PCM sound format of that same length.
I just finished one that fit with a 103 minute, 16/48 stereo audio file of 1.11 GB size.   I also had a video file that I created using several photos. Sorry, don't have the final video file size. I erased it all from my computer. However, the final disc size was 3.754 GB. A little extrapolation suggests a maximum DVD length of 119 minutes. That with simple video and PCM audio. Now, can one make a similar DVD with 150 minutes?
I had three 48 kHz files that I created in Adobe Audion. They were 1.599, 0.911, and 0.974 GBs in size. That added up to 3.480. The playing time is about 2:30 Hours; quite a bit less than 3 hours.   I tried burning a DVD with these, audio-files-only. I checked lowest quality video, used no video, and got an Export To DVD error that I had "insufficient" space on the 4.7 GB disc! So, I used the two latter files, which added to only 1.884 GB. Premiere did not baulk, and it successfully burned a DVD that played. Then I added the 1.599 GB file, and, once again, it produced an error. This was clearly not going to work.
At this point, I realized that Audition had done what it liked to do: It had saved the 16 bit-48 kHz files as 32 bit-48 kHz! So, I went back to Audition and used EDIT to change the files to genuine 16 bit-48 kHz files. When I opened them in Premiere, Premiere reported 16 bit-48 kHz files. Their sizes were now, 0.799, 0.456, and 0.487 GB. Please note that this totals 1.742 GB. This is less than the 1.884 GB I had successfully used before.   Once again, I was getting the "insufficient" space error.
I searched the CS2 Premiere manual and its index, but cannot really find any way to calculate maximum times, or squeezing the most out. So, anybody got some ideas?
Mike

When working from DVD-Videos, this ARTICLE might be helpful - All VOB's (the container for the MPEG-2 files in a DVD-Video) are not created equally.
Most DVR's write a VOB 01, that is not up to the DVD-specs. That can create a problem for PrE (and also PrPro), and if you have issues, please do follow Neale's advice.
Good luck and welcome to the forum.

VMWare Fusion and Parallels Desktop Benchmark Comparison

This is a quickie benchmark of VMWare Fusion and Parallels Desktop using Super PI, PC Mark 05, and Passmark.
VMWare Fusion 36932
Parallels Desktop 3094 Beta 2
Notes:
Both virtual machines were allocated with large 10+ GB virtual disks and 640MB of RAM. The VMWare CPU was configured with two processors. The Parallels CPU was configured with 1 (two is not available). VMWare reported the CPU as 1 physical, 2 logical processors running at 2.66 GHz while Parallels reported 1 physical, 1 logical processor running at 9.6 GHz (the combined speed of all four cores on the Mac Pro). The max observed CPU utilization in activity monitor when running under VMWare was 200% and max under Parallels was 173%.
I chose not to compare 1 VMWare CPU vs. 1 Parallels CPU. While Parallels does not support SMP or multithreaded processes on multiple processors the CPU utilization on the Mac went well above 1 core (173%). For this comparison, I wanted to see results of max processing based on what the two vendors have delivered, as opposed to benchmarking the underlying "virtual or hypervisor cpu" on a 1:1 basis. This explains why VMWare was 2x faster than Parallels on some CPU tests.
Both of these products are beta. VMWare is running in debug mode (can not be turned off in this beta).
Caveat emptor on these stats. This was an unscientific exercise to satisfy my curiosity. Some of the extraordinary differences are highlighted with <--.
Platform:
Mac Pro 2.66 GHz, 2GB RAM, Nvidia 7300GT
Disk 1 - OS X, 73GB Raptor
Disk 2 - dedicated disk where each virtual machine image was created separate from the OS or any OS-related virtual memory files.

Thanks for posting these numbers - it's an interesting comparison.
I would expect the final VMWare fusion performance numbers to be quite a bit better than that of Parallels - they have almost a decade's worth of experience more than the Parallels folks in this arena, and a much larger development team to boot.
Once VMWare Fusion is released to the public, I think that you'll see a clearer distinction between the two products. VMWare will continue to appeal to the professional customer, with a more robust feature set and corporate-friendly features (and a correspondingly higher price tag); Parallels will fall more into the consumer/VirtualPC-replacement market. It will be interesting to see how Parallels will be affected when (and if) VMWare player is ported to OS X.
Interesting about the Parallels performance stats on a native partition - looks like almost enough reason to avoid the bootcamp partition approach altogether. Sharing a native windows installation with a VM in parallels is a pretty scary situation in any case, as the two environments have entirely different hardware configurations. Do-able, but there is some black magic involved (if you want to see an example of what I mean, try to move a windows installation from one machine to another w/different hardware sometime - it ain't pretty); I wouldn't try this in a production scheme unless I had REALLY good backups.

Performance benchmark

Hi,
I would like to do some performance benchmarking using Xmath and SystemBuild. Matlab has a tic/toc function, and for Simulink there's model callback.
Is there a similar function in both Xmath and SystemBuild?
Thanks

pkad,
Another thing you might want to take a look at is the Hyperbuild manual. As part of its tutorial it describes a way to time the run-time of a simulation.
Have a great weekend,

Audio drop-out in FCPX with 1920x1080 & 2048x1240p @ 24p (codec Apple ProRes 4444 (Linear PCM))24p

Hi all...
I'm new to this forum.
Is there an audio issue (drop-outs) with FCPX (ver 10.1.2) for 1920x1080 24p, 1080p HD & 2048x1240 24p (2k) - note: films in FCPX are in codec Apple ProRes 4444, Linear PCM?
Very recently I've been working on a show reel and I have imported a file (short film) to snip out a section to add to the show reel.
I set the project to the film's settings i.e.. "set based on first video clip"...(1920x1080 24p, 1080p HD). When I play the film in FCPX the audio "hic-cups"..."dips to silence"..."drops-out" briefly (up to 0.5 secs in duration) and very frequently all the way through (approx 15 mins long film)...note: audio set is at stereo 48kHz. The audio monitors on the right hand side also show the dip taking place (if it's a long enough drop-out).
I also have a version of the film in 2048x1240 24p at 2k, again Stereo 48kHz...and this does the same audio "drop-out" all the way through. I'm unsure what other formats will create this problem i.e. higher or lower aspect ratios than those above.
Is this a software and/or OS issue? Or a hardware issue? Or both!?
About This iMac details:
iMac 27 inch: OS X ver 10.9.4
Processor: 3.5 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory: 32 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M 4096 MB
Fusion Drive 3.12 TB
Final Cut Pro X was bought & installed with this iMac back in Feb 2014
FCPX version: 10.1.2
Note also: I used Compressor (ver 4.1.2) to convert the files (movies) above to Apple ProRes 422 HQ, Linear PCM and the issue disappeared - the audio and visuals played with no problems. All films play with no issue when opened in QT player. They are also fine when exporting from FCPX. The issue only occurs (as far as I can tell) within FCPX when editing or playing the audio there.
Has anyone encountered this problem?
Kind Regards,
Hakan

Hi Luis,
Thank you for that.
Seems like you have a point about the "hardware" issue. I'm unsure (new to it all) at what data rate my (er...wonderful) fusion drive provides FCPX for smooth playback - or where I can find that info on the iMac. Playing back movies in the 422 HQ codec seems to have no issues (when I converted the movie from 4444 HQ).
But playing the full 4444 HQ, the picture is smooth, but the audio has these drop-outs - even with "best performance" option ticked. Interesting that the audio suffers, not the picture in FCPX - so not sure what's going on there. I also read - perhaps - that to play a smooth ProRes 4444 HQ movie in FCPX the data rate should be min of 500 Mbs (based upon About Apple ProRes) for HD movies and up (i.e. 2k). ProRes 422 HQ needs a data rate of 220 Mbs - so that is my upper-limit to smooth video&audio playback with the current system I have, I guess.
Does anyone recommend a fast USB3 or Thunderbolt drive (500Mbs+) where I am able to run 4444HQ movies with no issues to picture or sound (away from the fusion drive)?

Am getting PCM output error message when trying to play a video from iPad2 on my TV

The movie was purchased on iTunes store. I connected the iPad2 through the adapter via HDMI straight to the TV and I have a Bose Lifestyle system for surround 5.1 sound. After a few minutes and every few minutes after that the movie would blur and blackout then it would come back. Eventually I got a PCM OUTPUT error message onscreen. How do I resolve this problem?

I have been able to open a few items in iTunes, but have not been able to play even those videos from my Apple TV. I can airplay them from the computer, but cannot access them directly from Apple TV. This is a bit frustrating.

MPEG-2 Video Linear PCM Timecode no longer working in FCP7

I edit daily with Final Cut Pro 7.0.3 on my MacBook Pro. I have several projects in which I imported files from an MR HD-100 hard drive. Not only did I successfully edit several projects, but I could open the individual files in QuickTime. They are 1280 x 720 MPEG-2 Video, Linear PCM, Timecode HD (1-1-1) files. Now suddenly they will not open. All I get is a white screen in Final Cut. Even the old finished projects I open in Final Cut show a white screen where this footage used to be. When I try to open one of the files in QuickTime I get the message, "An invalid public movie atom was found in the movie." I have not needed any type of conversion to make these files compatible before. They just worked. Any ideas as to why they suddenly won't work now?

I finally had time yesterday and today to tackle this problem. I read the link you sent and jedi knights had the solution if you had access to a mac still running 10.6.7 which I did not. So.....I bought a 32gb flash, intalled osx 10.6.3 from my disc, reinsalled QT7, did the 10.6.7 update, installed FCP7 so the codecs would load into QT and then transferred the one file (System/Library/QuickTimeComponents.component/Contents/MacOS/QuickTime Components) onto my laptop. ALL IS NOW RIGHT WITH THE WORLD!
Thank you for your help.

Nvidia 180.22: mrxvt transparency and reasonable benchmarks

I just got a 9800GT a few days ago. Just now I upgraded from 173.X nVidia drivers to the newest 180 in the repositories. Two questions:
1) The tabbar transparency in MRXVT has been messed up with the driver upgrade. When I was using 173, it was fine, but using 180 breaks it. Now the tabbar has an odd semi-transparent hue to it, although other mrxvt transparency is fine. IIRC when I tried 177.X I had the same problem. Here's my xorg.conf, do I need to enable anything new with the latest driver? The only transparent-ish thing that has broken is the mrxvt tabbar. I'm not even using real transparency, just pseudo.

2) I ran glxgears on the old and new drivers. The old ones yielded about 6800 - 6900 FPS on average. The new ones yield about 6900 - 7000 FPS on average. So, about a ~50FPS improvement, not much to write home about. I've looked through other threads and this seems to be about on par for the graphics card I have (but I hear that on other distros nVidia cards can get much better benchmarks). Just want to check, does that sound about right? I'm unexperienced with tweaking Xorg for graphics performance and I basically just have what nvidia-config spit out.
Thanks.

Pseudo transparency works by placing a copy of your background in the background of your window. (like behind the words in your terminal)
True Transparency will do that, and add an image of your other windows that are behind the transparent window.
If you enable composite, (have a graphics card that can handle it), install xcompmgr and transset-df, then add
xcompmgr -C & # The & keeps it from waiting for the program to stop before doing anything else.
to you autostart, it will enable transparency. I'm using openbox and it works beautifully.
Here is my .Xdefaults (by the way if it doesn't exist, you can create it in your user folder, just don't miss the' . ' !

Audigy 2 ZS Platinum and Stereo PCM

#Audigy 2 ZS Platinum and Stereo PCM? Hi,
Have an Audigy 2 ZS Platinum here and I'm having issues with having no audio when inputting Stereo PCM over Optical Toslink. I tried using both default and internal decoder, but no audio at all. It only works when using passthru/bypass mode. Tried a bunch of stereo inputs and had no audio at all. Is Stereo PCM not supported or what here? The test input streams were PCM two channel 48khz 6bit and 20bit. And Dolby Pro Logic is listed in the decoder tab with Auto, On, or Off. But maybe that isn't the same as Dolby Pro Logic II and that is why there is no audio. Only seems to work with Passthru mode only.

Issue in Temp table creation in PCM Databridge and data migration from ecc to PCM using databridge

Hi,
we are working on mapping SAP PCM table structure data and the data which is coming from ECC.
We are using Databridge tool to upload the data for the same,upload from databridge involves
using Specification file to upload the data into SAP PCM.
The problem we are facing is that
The responsiblity center(cost center) in ECC and SAP PCm are different.There is one to many relationship between them
eg 1 ecc cost center-->many SAP PCM cst center,we need to split the line item vale of one ecc cost center into many SAP PCM cost centers
eg C1 cost center from ECC has value 4000 to be split across PCM1,PCM2,PCM3,PCM4 cost centers in SAP PCM
we need to automate using the databridge ,we are stuck up in this task.
Please guide us.
Also we are trying to create temporary table usinf Table temporary command in SPE file of databridge.The purpose of this is to put the ECC data in temp table as per our req and then use the temp table as data source for putting data in PCm as per our requirement.
Please advise us on this approach
Regards
Shrirang

I suppose he already installed a software 12c and created a database itseems - So when you imported you might have this "already exists"
Whenever the database is created and software installed by default system,sys,sysaux will be created.
