One thing I dont understand...
Ive tested my old C2D on 2,80 GHz with 2GB ram VS. quad on 2,50 GHz with 4 GB of RAM... radiosity processing time was the same!
What are the resons for this?
...is it because LS doesnt see more then one core when processing? ... in that case I had a pure situation of 2,80 GHz agains 2,50 GHz....this seems logical!
But then again the question of memory remains....if one system had 2 GB and the other 4 GB, and both have 2,50 GHz of CPU power....shouldnt one be faster in processing then the other?!?!
Im running WinXP-32bit
Thanx!
