Benchmarking

[Herman]

I have not the slightest idea what benchmarking actually is, but I do know its used to measure the speed/efficiency of systems/code. If anybody know how to benchmark or just general knowledge of benchmarking that they'd like to share that would be immensely appreciated

Hmm, Ive never heard of it. This post is kinda useless but its kind of depressing when no one responds to your posts. Gl in finding out what benchmarking is.

well you kinda answered your own question. simply its comparing codes to find out which is faster and by how much so your map can be as efficient and fast as possible.

to give you an idea on how this is done, a recent post in the triggers area:

enjoy!

It's not exactly limited to the world of computing either. In the business world, there are benchmarks that compare a business against its competitors in the market. Although generally it is a method to calculate efficiency. As for how to do a computational benchmark, you could make a timer for each trigger before they start and then stop the timer once they are done. Used to do this a lot comparing C with other languages just to show how bulky C is...

Ahh, thank you!

Thats exactly what I was looking for

Test your pc mightyness with this cool benchmark test.:piru: First the benchmark runs with modern cpu settings but if your computer stats to shutter (becomes unresponsive like for like 5 secs) press esc to abort the test. !note reduce difficulty doesnt work on multiplayer lobby After this you...
