Test results for the upgrade 10.2.3 to 10.2.4

Method:

3, Results 102.67

Upgrade to 10.2.4

Repair disk permissions

10.2.4 Restart computer no user apps running and run Xbench 1.0 three times.

1, Results 101.68
2, Results 102.44

I will admit it was a pretty useless test as Xbench only tests hardware, but I was hoping for some OpenGL or Quartz improvement.

on my power mac (with nothing running, top of the line) i ran xbench on 10.2.4.
OMFG.
Results: 42.75.
On a dual 1.42ghz Power Mac isn't that a bit odd?

Yes very weird. You have something wrong with Xbench or your hardware/software.

That is very low.
 
I got a bizarre memory test result. It said I was getting over 1GB/sec, and had an allocate performance of 228% of the base machine. Considering the practical max of the MPX bus is 800MB/sec, I think something's wrong (yes, I know the theoretical limit is about 1GB/sec, Apple says it can't get that high).
