PAR2 Multithreaded Archive Recovery Performance
Par2 is an application used for reconstructing downloaded archives. It can generate parity data from a given archive and later use it to recover the archive
Chuchusoft took the source code of par2cmdline 0.4 and parallelized it using Intel’s Threading Building Blocks 2.1. The result is a version of par2cmdline that can spawn multiple threads to repair par2 archives. For this test we took a 708MB archive, corrupted nearly 60MB of it, and used the multithreaded par2cmdline to recover it. The scores reported are the repair and recover time in seconds.
WinRAR - Archive Creation
Our WinRAR test simply takes 300MB of files and compresses them into a single RAR archive using the application's default settings. We're not doing anything exotic here, just looking at the impact of CPU performance on creating an archive:

Good, you have bought an Intel product, you will happy with it. I believe you will never buy AMD products, because their products are crap and can not win the benchmark.bupkus - Tuesday, October 20, 2009 - link
I have an AMD/ATI 4850 video card I bought a year and a half ago and it's working just fine. I don't expect Intel to have a competitive offering for a long time.maddoctor - Tuesday, October 20, 2009 - link
It will change with Larrabee. I believe you will buy Intel Larrabee, because simple choice will make you happy with Intel standards.maddoctor - Tuesday, October 20, 2009 - link
Yeah, I want it soon. Intel will crush them in the low end segment too. I want Intel own all PC Market if Intel have been successfully made AMD's cash empty. AMD is whine too much, so Intel must punish AMD until dead.bersl2 - Tuesday, October 20, 2009 - link

Look everyone! Its maddoctor! The counter-twin to snakeoil!Shilohen - Tuesday, October 20, 2009 - link
Ohh, I've never read anything from snakeoil yet so I was seeing him more like Intel's SiliconDoc.Eeqmcsq - Tuesday, October 20, 2009 - link
Boy, you're not kidding. Put those two together and there be fireworks.RubberJohnny - Tuesday, October 20, 2009 - link
It probably is snakeoil, he leaves out a couple of words here and there to make it sound like he comes from some non english speaking country instead of his mums basement...
