<div>was a win.</div><div><br></div><div>Here are a few notes about the raw results.</div><div><br></div><div>A couple benchmarks (really short ones?) seem to have strongly bimodal distributions on Wine.</div><div>For instance, here are ten measurements on each OS of 3dmark06_CPU2_Red_Valley:</div>
<div><br></div><div>wine-1.1.44-19 1.33 1.36 1.36 1.36 1.37 1.37 1.37 1.37 1.37 1.37 </div><div>wine-1.1.44-72 1.30 1.31 1.31 1.31 1.31 1.32 1.32 1.32 1.32 1.38 </div><div>Vista 1.39 1.39 1.39 1.39 1.39 1.39 1.39 1.39 1.39 1.39 </div>
<div><br></div><div>For some reason, today's wine usually had the slow result, whereas yesterday</div><div>it usually had the fast result. Vista didn't suffer from this, and was slightly faster, too.</div><div>Why does Wine return a slow result sometimes? </div>
<div><br></div><div>3dmark2000_Game_1_Helicopter_High_Detail was quite variable under Wine</div><div>(and slightly better today), but hardly varied at all on Vista:</div><div>wine-1.1.44-19 133.70 133.90 141.60 145.00 145.40 151.60 159.30 161.80 164.40 173.60 </div>
<div>wine-1.1.44-72 139.50 144.70 154.10 157.40 157.90 162.40 170.50 178.80 180.80 198.60 </div><div>Vista 281.60 282.50 282.90 283.20 283.40 283.60 283.70 283.80 284.00 284.50 </div><div><br></div><div>What can explain such variability?</div>
<div><br></div><div>heaven2_d3d9_FPS, on the other hand, didn't vary much on Wine - and was quite a bit better today:</div><div>wine-1.1.44-19 9.23 9.28 9.30 9.30 9.30 9.31 9.31 9.32 9.32 9.32 </div><div>wine-1.1.44-72 11.05 11.07 11.07 11.07 11.08 11.08 11.08 11.09 11.10 11.10 </div>
<div>Vista 18.37 18.37 18.38 18.38 18.38 18.38 18.38 18.38 18.38 18.38 </div><div><br></div><div><div>Perhaps I should strip down my system and run fvwm95 rather than Gnome, etc.,</div></div><div>to see if I can reduce the noise a bit more.</div>
