    Discussion Performance per litre - Round 4

    I'd really appreciate the sqrt so we get the performance to the ^1.. But if you can give me a few days I was about to publish some analyses of the possible tests you mentioned so you can see how they behave

    Discussion Performance per litre - Round 4

    I think things got confused. The things that do change the ranking is: (1) whether you use volume ^1.5 vs vol^1 or (2) perf*perf (ie perf^2) vs sqrt(perf*perf) (i.e perf) Chinevo calculated "I think he meant (Volume in cm)^1.5 instead of (Volume in liters)^1.5 in original formula. In this case...

    Discussion Performance per litre - Round 4

    I think there's some fundamental misunderstanding or miscommunication here. Whether you use cm^3 or mm^3 or liters does not change either the formula bias nor the linearity. They are interchangeable statements like "6 in one hand, half dozen in the other"

    Discussion Performance per litre - Round 4

    Thanks Revo and others for continuing to consider this. After analyzing it again I don't think <1L breaks any of these formulas, they're all smooth functions in the domain (0,inf] I see where you're coming from but I think, unfortunately, the 1L delineation doesn't protect from some SoC Minis...

    Discussion Performance per litre - Round 4

    Thank you for understanding it was square performance Adding them (arithmetic mean) leads to imbalance between the scaling of the benchmarks. This is the point of geometric means: sqrt(cpu*gpu). In this simple equation the relative scaling is handled. It's quite simply taking the squared...

    Discussion Performance per litre - Round 4

    I think you are both misunderstanding, this formula isnt sqrt(performance) it's the sqrt(performance^2) ie performance ^1. As for Mini Builds... I agree there's an issue either way. I think that any build with integrated cpu should be separated anyway. The whole coolnesss of SFF is to keep the...

    Discussion Performance per litre - Round 4

    Hi all, We were talking about formulas and what would most accurately define the title "performance per liter". I've come up with a solution to this using the geometric mean (instead of the proposed arithmetic mean) of the performance numbers. Sqrt(cpu_r23*gpu_timespy)/Volume The benefit of...
