Performance difference between 3.33 6 core and dual 2.4 quad core.

Sorry if this seems like a silly question to the technically savvy out there, but I am looking to replace my older Mac Pro. I was wondering what the performance difference between those two machines.
I am a film editor and run Final Cut as well as Avid Media Composer, plus I do effects work in After Effects. Which of the two would be bettervforvtgatbwork? Media storage issues aside, would I get better performance for video work from the lower ghz dual core or the larger ghz 6 core?
Both machines are essentially the same cost. So I wonder if there is a better choice amongbthe two, and why.
I tried some research, but couldn't find a direct comparison or a general guide that seemed to correspond to those configuration differences.

Hello nibford,
For photo editing and digital imaging I would recommend the 6-Core 3.33GHz as the better buy, but then I do not use Final Cut, Avid Media Composer, or After Effects.
The following article, from the legendary, and much quoted, Mac Performance Guide, gives an excellent insight into the new 2010 range of Mac Pros:
http://macperformanceguide.com/Reviews-MacProWestmere.html
Unfortunately, from your point of view, but not mine, the performance tests are predominantly photography related, but there is a comparison of Performance with Adobe After Effects on Page 28:
http://macperformanceguide.com/Reviews-MacProWestmere-AfterEffects.html
There is virtually no difference in performance between the 6-Core 3.33GHz and the 8-Core 2.4GHz in those tests.
However, in the Performance with Handbrake Video Encoding on Page 29, the 6-Core 3.33GHz is only marginally slower than the 8-Core 2.93GHz, which would indicate that it would be substantially faster than the 8-Core 2.4GHz for this process:
http://macperformanceguide.com/Reviews-MacProWestmere-Handbrake.html
Again the 6-Core 3.33GHz outperforms the 8-Core 2.4GHz in the Cinebench tests on Page 30:
http://macperformanceguide.com/Reviews-MacProWestmere-Cinebench.html
The only advantage that the 8-Core 2.4GHz currently appears to have over the 6-Core 3.33GHz is that it has twice the number of memory slots, and can accommodate a maximum of 64GB RAM compared to the 32GB of the latter.
In the future, applications might take full advantage of the 8-Core 2.4GHz's additional cores, but at the moment, in my opinion, the 6-Core's much faster processor tips the scales in its favour.

Bill

What is the performance difference between an Oct 2011 i5 and a June 2012 i7 in performance if they both have 16GB RAM

what is the performance difference between an Oct 2011 i5 and a June 2012 i7 in performance if they both have 16GB RAM

At least. The Core i7 can drive up to 8 concurrent 64-bit threads, more than an i5. Plus the 2011 models used the Sandy Bridge family of Intel chips, whereas the 2012 are the latest Ivy Bridge, that uses a much faster, less latency architecture.

Huge performance differences between a map listener for a key and filter

Hi all,
I wanted to test different kind of map listener available in Coherence 3.3.1 as I would like to use it as an event bus. The result was that I found huge performance differences between them. In my use case, I have data which are time stamped so the full key of the data is the key which identifies its type and the time stamp. Unfortunately, when I had my map listener to the cache, I only know the type id but not the time stamp, thus I cannot add a listener for a key but for a filter which will test the value of the type id. When I launch my test, I got terrible performance results then I tried a listener for a key which gave me much better results but in my case I cannot use it.
Here are my results with a Dual Core of 2.13 GHz
1) Map Listener for a Filter
a) No Index

Hi Robert,
Indeed, only the Filter.evaluate(Object obj)
method is invoked, but the object passed to it is a
MapEvent.<< In fact, I do not need to implement EntryFilter to
get a MapEvent, I could get the same result (in my
last message) by writting
cache.addMapListener(listener, filter,
true)instead of
cache.addMapListener(listener, new
MapEventFilter(filter) filter, true)
I believe, when the MapEventFilter delegates to your filter it always passes a value object to your filter (old or new), meaning a value will be deserialized.
If you instead used your own filter, you could avoid deserializing the value which usually is much larger, and go to only the key object. This would of course only be noticeable if you indeed used a much heavier cached value class.
The hashCode() and equals() does not matter on
the filter class<< I'm not so sure since I noticed that these methods
were implemented in the EqualsFilter class, that they
are called at runtime and that the performance
results are better when you add them
That interests me... In what circumstances did you see them invoked? On the storage node before sending an event, or upon registering a filtered listener?
If the second, then I guess the listeners are stored in a hash-based map of collections keyed by a filter, and indeed that might be relevant as in that case it will cause less passes on the filter for multiple listeners with an equalling filter.
DataOutput.writeInt(int) writes 4 bytes.
ExternalizableHelper.writeInt(DataOutput, int) writes
1-5 bytes (or 1-6?), with numbers with small absolute
values consuming less bytes.Similar differences exist
for the long type as well, but your stamp attribute
probably will be a large number...<< I tried it but in my use case, I got the same
results. I guess that it must be interesting, if I
serialiaze/deserialiaze many more objects.
Also, if Coherence serializes an
ExternalizableLite object, it writes out its
class-name (except if it is a Coherence XmlBean). If
you define your key as an XmlBean, and add your class
into the classname cache configuration in
ExternalizableHelper.xml, then instead of the
classname, only an int will be written. This way you
can spare a large percentage of bandwidth consumed by
transferring your key instance as it has only a small
number of attributes. For the value object, it might
or might not be so relevant, considering that it will
probably contain many more attributes. However, in
case of a lite event, the value is not transferred at
all.<< I tried it too and in my use case, I noticed that
we get objects nearly twice lighter than an
ExternalizableLite object but it's slower to get
them. But it is very intersting to keep in mind, if
we would like to reduce the network traffic.
Yes, these are minor differences at the moment.
As for the performance of XMLBean, it is a hack, but you might try overriding the readExternal/writeExternal method with your own usual ExternalizableLite implementation stuff. That way you get the advantages of the xmlbean classname cache, and avoid its reflection-based operation, at the cost of having to extend XMLBean.
Also, sooner or later the TCMP protocol and the distributed cache storages will also support using PortableObject as a transmission format, which enables using your own classname resolution and allow you to omit the classname from your objects. Unfortunately, I don't know when it will be implemented.
>
But finally, I guess that I found the best solution
for my specific use case which is to use a map
listener for a key which has no time stamp, but since
the time stamp is never null, I had just to check
properly the time stamp in the equals method.
I would still recommend to use a separate key class, use a custom filter which accesses only the key and not the value, and if possible register a lite listener instead of a heavy one. Try it with a much heavier cached value class where the differences are more pronounced.
Best regards,
Robert

Graph axes assignment: performance difference between ATTR_ACTIVE_XAXIS and ATTR_PLOT_XAXIS

Hi,
I am using a xy graph with both x axes and both y axes. There are two possibilities when adding a new plot:
1) PlotXY and SetPlotAttribute ( , , , ATTR_PLOT_XAXIS, );
2) SetCtrlAttribute ( , , ATTR_ACTIVE_XAXIS, ) and PlotXY
I tend to prefer the second method because I would assume it to be slightly faster, but what do the experts say?
Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Wolfgang,
thank you for your interesting question.
First of all I want to say, that generally spoken, using the command "SetCtrlAttribute"is the best way to handle with your elements. I would suggest using this command when ever it is possible.
Now, to your question regarding the performance difference between "SetCtrlAttribute" and "SetPlotAttribute".
I think the performance difference occures, because in the background of the "SetPlotAttribute" command, another function called "ProcessDrawEvents" is executed. This event refreshes your plot again and again in the function whereas in the "SetCtrlAttribute" the refreshing is done once after the function has been finished. This might be a possible reason.
For example you have a progress bar which shows you the progress of installing a driver:
"SetPlotAttribute" would show you the progress bar moving step by step until installing the driver is done.
"SetCtrlAttribute" would just show you an empty bar at the start and a full progress bar when the installing process is done.
I think it is like that but I can't tell you 100%, therefore I would need to ask our developers.
If you want, i can forward the question to them, this might need some times. Also, then I would need to know which version of CVI you are using.
Please let me now if you want me to forward your question.
Have a nice day,

Is there a performance difference between Automation Plug-ins and the scripting system?

We currently have a tool that, through the scripting system, merges and hides layers by layer groups, exports them, and then moves to the next layer group. There is some custom logic and channel merging that occasionally occurs in the merging of an individual layer group. These operations are occuring through the scripting system (actually, through C# making direct function calls through Photoshop), and there are some images where these operations take ~30-40 minutes to complete on very large images.
Is there a performance difference between doing the actions in this way as opposed to having these actions occur in an automation plug-in?
Thanks,

Thanks for the reply. I ended up just benchmarking the current implementation that we are using (which goes through DOM from all indications, I wasn't the original author of the code) and found that accessing each layer was taking upwards of 300 ms. I benchmarked iterating through the layers with PIUGetInfoByIndexIndex (in the Getter automation plug-in) and found that the first layer took ~300 ms, but the rest took ~1 ms. With that information, I decided that it was worthwhile rewriting the functionality in an Automation plug-in.

Difference between 3,1 and 3,4 GHz Quad-Core i7

Hi
Does anybody know if there is a difference between iMAC 3,1 and 3,4 GHz Quad-Core i7 regarding the sound level of the computer/the fan?
Thanks R

When I listened to the stock 27" 2011 iMac at an Apple Store, it was dead quiet -- at least so far as I could tell in that environment, which is not exactly the quietest.
I now own a BTO 27" with the 3.4 GHz i7 -- along with both the Apple SSD and a 2 TB internal HD, 16 GB RAM, and the 2GB graphics controller.
With this configuration, in a totally quiet home office, if I listed I can often hear a low-level "whoosh" from the fans. Most of the time, thought, I'm not even aware of that fan sound.
I do sometimes hear the internal HD.
All the iMac's own sounds are insignificant when compared to the spin noise of an external LaCie HD.

Speed Differences Between 2.66ghz i7 15" and 17" models

The specs on the top of the line 15&17" 2.66ghz i7 Macbook Pros appear to be identical.
Aside from cosmetic differences, (like express card vs SD, or the presence of extra ports), can someone please tell me if there are performance differences between these two models?
Would the 15" be as fast as the 17", for instance, in rendering a quicktime movie to h.264 mpeg-4?
On a second not, I know they are also apples and oranges, but how fast would these new laptops be compared to my 2008 2.8 ghz dual quad core Mac Pro? Is my Mac Pro still faster than these laptops? I know I would get blazed by the new i7 iMac.

The specs are identical, unless you consider it useful to have an ExpressCard slot to connect eSATA drives and various other devices, or to have 30% more screen real estate than the hi-res 15" model (or 78% more than the lo-res version). Performance-wise, the machines should be almost exactly alike.
Your Mac Pro will still outperform either.

Hi Experts,
Let me know that, the differences between the FMs of SAVE_TEXT and CREATE_TEXT.
Like, Wht Wht scenarioes demand each FM?
Which is best one, if both perform same functionality.
replies appreciated.

CREATE_TEXT is used to create a new Text. It uses the SAVE_TEXT inside it.
SAVE_TEXT is used to update the existing text.

No difference between using a local variable and a notifier in timed parallel loops?

The example code "Pass Data With Notifiers.vi" that came with LV 7.1 illustrates using notifiers with parallel loops. Just looking at two of the loops, the one that generates the sine wave and the one for "User 1", you can change the timing of the two loops and you can change the condition of the "Ignore Previous" status on the "Wait on Notification". I have a special case of this to consider, where I'm wondering if there's any reason not to use a local variable instead of the notifier:
Set the delay on the generator portion (which contains the Send Notification) to something very short, say 5 ms. Set the delay on the User 1 (which contains the Wait on Notification) to something relatively longer, say 200 ms. Set the Wait on Notification to False. Now you have a situation where the User 1 loop action is contingent only upon the loop delay time, since each time the loop timer runs the loop there will always be a value in the notifier. In this case it seems to behave just like the case where you update a local variable in the fast loop and read it in the slow one.
Is my understanding correct? Would there be a performance difference between the two methods? What do you prefer in this situation and why?
Thanks,
Hosehead

Hi H.,
I think your idea is to write to a Global Variable in the data-producer VI, and read it in the data-consumer VI(?)
One reason this might be less efficient than using Notifiers is if you want to graph every new value in the "consumer" - or make sure the value read in the consumer has changed at least once since the last loop.
> since each time the [consumer] loop timer runs the loop there will always be a value in the notifier...
> Would there be a performance difference between the two methods?
If you don't use the Notification "event" to synchronize the producer and consumer, then to be sure the consumer gets a new vaue, you've made the producer loop faster - every 5 ms - a waste of cpu-cycles. More often the situation is reversed, that is, there's a consumer that needs to see every single new value, and (without events) the consumer must loop faster than the producer (to catch every new value) - this is called polling and it wastes cpu-cycles.
Just about anytime one's tempted to make a loop execute "fast" to check on some value (or to make sure there's a fresh value,) there's an opportunity to improve performance through synchronization with events (including notifiers, queues, occurrances, semaphores, and rendezvous')
