Parallel Prime95 code and instructions - Page 2

Here's an example of a new worktodo.txt (I don't know of some full documentation about the new format, but the only big difference is the Worker #1 line):

Code:

[Worker #1]
Test=43000019,68,1

Besides the Worker #1 line, I notice it shows you put an M in front of the number. Edit: Oh, the only problem was the M. I guess the worker lines are only necessary to differentiate with multiple workers, and is not necessary for a single worker thread.

Is your small machine a dual core? I expect it'd change the number of CPUs to use to your number of CPUs if you enter a number higher than your number of CPUs (if that makes any sense

).

perhaps this post will help

You may also want to look at some other posts in the thread rather tedious I admit. Also works for other types of work.

Thanks for your help, guys ! I've understood.
I'll add some post in the "Perpetual Benchmark" Thread soon.

What about posting the

cat /proc/cpuinfo

output ... there you can see what features you do have (real cores or hyperthreaded).
