a engineer explains the problem with standard intel compiler and benchmarks.

My suggestion could we try to optimize MEgaglest for Bulldozer? i Hoperfully will get one for chirstmas, and i would really like to see the REAL performance of a bulldozer

We don't even have support for things like hyperthreading, why should we implement something for an AMD chip that is still light years behind Intel?

[will]

I'm curious, Omega, can you explain this hyperthreading thing and how an application might support it?

[softcoder]

I think you remove the ritalin prescription and the threads become hyper again lol! (sorry I couldn't resist)

Omega, The point is that the AMD chip is NOT behind Intel, it's just optimized hardware wise for multithreaded applications as i understand it, but most programs does not take advantage of this.

Lol softcoder just lol.

IN the article there is apparently a engineer of sorts that think that the AMD chip is just as stong or stronger than Intel processors.

but could the developers shred any lights on this?.
