eo: Applications load time.

  1. They must be preloaded or something like that. Even 7200 RPM Athlon 64 3000+ can't fully load them under a second.
    Of course there can be a problem with the bench program.

  2. Under 3 sec for Visual Studio is great. My Desktop ( 7200 RPM 3.2G Pentium and 2GB of Ram ) needs longer.
    Are you really sure the bench program is ok ?

  3. This program is a little tricky, so my advice is to anyone to download the program and test it in your computers. It measure the time from the moment when the program is opened and it ends when the process appears in the list of processes (at least this is what I believe).

    One thing is sure, guys this device is fast.

  4. Did you measure the first load for the application ? Otherwise the application are cached by windows. I downloaded the tool and made a test with Photoshop on my pc. The first load took over 8 sec, the second load only 1.9 sec.

  5. The only thing that I had opened of Office when I did the tests was Outlook. Of course part of the office root is loaded in to memory with Outlook (I believe). But... still. The results as you can see are not bad at all.

  6. even opening up a blank ! word 2003 document takes seconds (more than 10 sometimes) under 7200 RPM Athlon 64 3000. This benchmark is clearly wrong.
