also spacemit take notes since n2 can do 3.2ghz btw
spacemit upgraded from x100 (intel core/2) to x200 (haswell) btw... im waiting for their x300 to be finally catching up to lion cove... just make a 10-wide risc-v god-core that can clock up to 4.0 ghz*
*arm already did that with the x925/c1u btw
also p sure spacemit cheats a fair amount with 462 and simulated the results LOL... credibility = 0
9000+ has 64k of l1i/d cache per core. there's some unofficial info at reptdoc.netlify.app. weirdly how in my testing seems like only x2 gets slc access or big l3 access...
a510,a710,x2 information you can search chipsandcheese.
a510 is 2x128b shared between two cores. a710 is 2x128b. x2 is 4x128b. a510 emulates bf16 support using fp32.
My name is Cortex A65. I'm 33 years old. My house is in the northeast section of Morioh, where all the villas are, and I am not married. I work as an employee for the Kame Yu department stores, and I get home every day by 8 PM at the latest. I don't smoke, but I occasionally drink. I'm in bed by 11 PM, and make sure I get eight hours of sleep, no matter what. After having a glass of warm milk and doing about twenty minutes of stretches before going to bed, I usually have no problems sleeping until morning. Just like a baby, I wake up without any fatigue or stress in the morning. I was told there were no issues at my last check-up. I'm trying to explain that I'm a person who wishes to live a very quiet life. I take care not to trouble myself with any enemies, like winning and losing, that would cause me to lose sleep at night. That is how I deal with society, and I know that is what brings me happiness. Although, if I were to fight I wouldn't lose to anyone.
*Actually 3.5/10, BUT the a53 was my whole life in 2017-2022. the a53 truly carried all of my experiences, memories, etc... without the a53 and the exynos 7870, i might be a completely different creature.... possibly the core that i lived the most with...
"An ounce of honest data is worth a pound of marketing hype" - SPEC
The "marketing hype" in question:
Now, since I want to do a fair comparison between something that may resembles the C86-4G and an Intel processor, here's the details if I ever got a chance at it:
1. System configuration.
Detail
System 1
System 2
Operating system
Fedora latest
Fedora latest
Compiler
GCC
GCC
CPU
Intel Core i7-14700K
Ryzen 9 3950X 2.8 GHz
SSD
512GB Gen4x4
512GB Gen4x4 (same model as System 1)
RAM
64GB DDR5-6000 CL28
64GB DDR4-3600 CL14
Chipset
Z790
X570
GPU
IGP/Headless
IGP/Headless
TDP
253W
142W
All processors are kept at stock settings and is configured so that no thermal throttling is detected during operation.
2. Testing procedure.
SPEC CPU 2006 will be the benchmark of choice. The testing procedure is as follows:
Options such as bindN (N < n_threads) are configured so that bindN for N < n_cores maps to the physical threads.
Now, the testing procedure starts:
First, for SPEC06 STint, the testing procedure is as follows:
Launch base run and basePGO (as peak) run as above with 1 iteration.
Now, the peak tuning is generated by determining the effects of PGO on execution times (win/loss). After the PGO determination step for the peak tuning has been done, we do a full 3-iterations run and report the base/peak result.
For SPEC06 MTint, the testing procedure is as follows:
Launch base run and basePGO (as peak) run as above with 1 iteration, setting the number of copies to n_threads.
Next, launch the same configurations, but instead of setting the number of copies to n_threads, set it to n_cores.
Now, the peak tuning is generated by determining the effects of PGO and SMT on execution times (win/loss). After the PGO/SMT determination step for the peak tuning has been done, we do a full 3-iterations run and report the base/peak result.
All reported files for the final 3-iterations runs are made public (PDF, HTML, raw, flags, etc.), and the result is aggegrated to the tables as follows:
Benchmark
System 1
System 2
SPEC06 STint base
SPEC06 STint peak
SPEC06 MTint base
SPEC06 MTint peak
One can also plot graphs based on the test results.
The steps above should be simmilar for SPEC06 ST/MTfp scores, but optimization/portability options might need a change.
