So, when the QoS (nice) level is set to the lowest level, essentially "I don't care: don't run this on P-cores, and don't run the E-cores fast", then the Mac Mini if faster, because it has four E-cores, and the Pro only as two.
The QoS levels are background (lowest), utility, userInitiated, and userInteractive (highest). All but background will run on P-cores.
Does it make any sense to benchmark a process when the QoS was specifically set to "I don't care how long it takes"?
- Someone 5y agoYes. If “I don’t care” means it takes a century, chances are you start to wonder whether your users really don’t care ⇒ To determine whether telling the OS that your users don’t care how long it takes, you need an idea about what that means.
