Developer’s Description

By Dauger Research

Mandelbrot fractals showing cluster CPU stats

A numerically-intensive parallel graphics application that computes a Mandelbrot-like fractal and displays processor performance statistics. This app uses the Velocity Engine, a.k.a. AltiVec, and multiple processors (MP) for its computations and uses UCLA AppleSeed's MacMPI_X library for communication between parallel processors. To run it on a Mac cluster, use Pooch. This code will also compute correctly on single processor machines and non-G4's.

Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />This program is a perfect CPU benchmark. IT does not rely on anything but the CPU, and accuraty measures the speed. Using the G5 optimized version on my Dual 2GHz shave off about 4 seconds from the old version (using MaxCount at 65536).
