Since writing of keyshot benchmarking guide back in 2010
https://www.keyshot.com/forum/index.php?topic=859.0
possibilities and features of hardware and software and especially their "interaction"
becomes a little more complex.
As one example:
Just think of CPU turbo modes taking current load details, temperature and energy consumption into account -and this in a hot summer day of 30°C or in winter at 20°C room temperature.
Or notebooks with same CPU but different cases with different dimensions and different cooling solutions....
-> same CPU may give speed results of + or -20% :-O Ouch!
So producing comparable benchmark results, one should
do 2 things
1. first of all: benchmark within a steady temperature state: That's pretty easy: just let the rendering run for at least 15 minutes before noting benchmark numbers
2. second important point: provide some more details about system of Software, Hardware and Conditions.
For a good start the following details may help:
Software:
- Keyshot version
- OS Type
- OS Version
- OS Energy saving mode
Hardware:
- Sytem-name/number
- Manufacture
or/and
Hardware Details:
- CPU Type
- RAM total
- RAM number of modules (channels used)
- Motherboard
- System over-clocked yes/no
- CPU- Cooler Type
- CPU-Cooler rpm (if not dynamic)
External conditions:
- Room-Temperature
=> what do you think?
