DriverHeaven Photoshop V2 Benchmark - available for members

Zardon

it can hold sections in the cache at times. best way to bench is from a fresh reboot, load photoshop then run the test as I said in the documentation. (or take an average of 3 runs).

Humm...This Bench must not be "optimized for G5"(Insert sarcasm)
That's what I'm supposed to say right..
It's strange how the G5 is fast at the low digits, and seems to slow down on the longer processes...

If anyone is wondering how I got this on my mac ...I downloaded and unrarred it on my A64

Yes plenty of people are new to the program, which is why I wrote a guide as I said here http://www.hardwareheaven.com/photoshop/ - if you take some time robert and read that page first you will know how to run the benchmark. the information you need to read the times is explained on that page. It wont take long and will ensure you know what you are doing - and there is a popup after every test telling you to look and mark down the figure from the timing readout bottom left of the screen

I'll try again tomorrow on a freshboot. I ran this right after some partition magicing and a total 18 hours uptime

Maybe we can dip below 200 tomorrow with a more agressive clock speed too...this was on my "warm weather" OC....and it's cold in my new apartment I would try and catch Z, but that's useless

pr0digal jenius

Well, a fresh reboot just dropped me to 213.9...without runnign SeeSaw, so with some more OCing and cleaning out my taskmanager and such, I MIGHT make it under 200....MAYBE

davidnsibs

ive run this a few times now on 7 and on CS and I find that apart from stained glass where there is a big improvement there is little improvement or even an increase e.g. smart blur from 35.7 to 72.7!!! I'll post a more detailed comparison when I get around to it but I'm programming some nice Numerical Methods in Fortran at the moment .. coursewrok YAY

Also, another quick coment, I'm finding that on some of the tasks it takes quite a while (eg 10 secs) to start (well for the blue progress bar at the bottom to start counting up), and this is definitely increasing the time to complete. is this normal and what is it doing, cacheing something in the RAM or something?

pr0digal jenius

does that for me 2, and yes, I think it is caching the current image into RAM

Zardon

This is why I said it will be also impossible to compare the time for this bench between versions of photoshop, specific filters tend to run faster on CS and yes a few even run a little slower. generally though CS is faster.
As for the blue progress bar, this is not specific to the bench, its just how photoshop handles the filter -it has started even before the bar appears, you will find in Version 7, the progress bar pops up immediately but will run slower once it does so.

Fantastic benchmark!!! This is exactly what i was looking for!!
Thank you and well done.

I'm " digital" photographer. I knew that my workflow would benefit from a computer upgrade.....well in this case is more a Complete new system.
