Hello,
I would like to share my experience with rendering the same scene (Benchwell 1.7 "sculpture.mxs") on different platforms:
On an overclocked (2,40GHz/2.76GHz) Intel Q6600 Core2Quad
8 GB RAM
# Ubuntu 9.04 64bit -18m 3s
# Windows Vista Ultimate 64bit -20m 14s
# Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit -21m 26s
Not much difference but Windows 7 is slower...
I tried the same test on another slower computer Intel xw4600 E8500 (3.16GHz) with 3.48 GB RAM
# Ubuntu 9.04 64bit -42m 11s
# Windows XP 32bit -32m 12s!!!
On a 4600 a 64bit Ubuntu is 10 min slower than 32bit Windows XP!
How is this possible? I am tempted to install XP on my main computer but am unable to do it right now and I really need the 8 GB RAM (that you can't use in 32bit)
Cheers,
Jakob Ryngen
