SuperPI has become an utility to benchmark modern systems. In August 1995, the calculation of pi with up to 4,294,960,000 decimal digits was succeeded by using a supercomputer at the University of Tokyo. The program was written by D.Takahashi and he collaborated with Dr. Y.Kanada at the computer center, the University of Tokyo.
The software offers up to 32M calculations of PI numbers. For all the tests we used up to 8M calculations:
At both tests, the Asus Blitz Formula had the lowest calculation times.
- wPrime
wPrime is a benchmarking application designed to use a highly multithreaded approach to calculating the square-roots of large amounts of numbers (up to 32 billion at this stage!)
wPrime uses all four cores of quad processors, therefore it can finish the fask much faster than a C2D.
At this test, the Gigabyte EP35-DS4 had the highest calculation time with 17.093secs.
