The Tilera architecture is different enough to make that benchmark meaningless though. You have to compare the best algorithm for one architecture with the best for the other. Of course, you could be right if that bag of tricks they opened up for the Tilera also makes for a more efficient x86 implementation.
- jacques_chester 15y agoOn my reading, there's nothing sufficiently different about the Tilera architecture that would prevent them back-porting the multi-threaded demultiplexer to x86. It's not a meaningful test in a scientific sense. While I suspect that Tilera would perform better, it's not properly controlled for. Some of the recorded difference will the software changes.
