benchmark anomalies > hpl (linpack)
Hello ,
must have gotten watched too many "educational" video,
now tested this benchmark called "linpack" on the main computer running Linux in two flavors
1 > Kubuntu 25.04 (with amdgpu, via amdgpu-install)
2 > Devuan 5.0 (with firmware-amd-graphics)
the computer is as such the same, just the OS are sitting on two different SSD (one is PCIe gen 4x4 for Kubuntu , one is PCIe gen 3x4 for Devuan)
the results of running the benchmark are quite different;
for Kubuntu the result is around 800 Gigaflops?
for Devuan 5.0 (or Linux Mint) the benchmark would top out at around 200 Gigaflops?
This result seem rather questionalble to me so i wonder what one should make out of it?
The install is via
phoronix-test-suite.deb and then install from there hpl and running it through the suite (no configuratin needed).
for Kubnut 25.04
