  • CPU Mark Distribution for Dual CPU incorrectly shows single-CPU results, too

    These histograms are useful; thanks! But there's a bug. An example is the page for [Dual CPU] Intel Xeon E5-2667 v2 @ 3.30GHz. Scroll down to the "CPU Mark Distribution for [Dual CPU]" histogram. You can see the bimodal distribution; the cluster around 12,000 is from one-CPU results, while the cluster around 21,000 is from two-CPU results. The one-CPU results shouldn't be there. The median is computed across both sets of results, making it nonsensical.

    While I'm at it, the display "Cores: 8 Threads: 16" above is ambiguous for multi-CPU configurations. Are they per processor chip, or are they the total for the system? The answer is the former. But it would be nice for your readers to have the point clarified on the page.

    Thank you for bringing this to our attention. You are correct, it was showing systems with single and multiple CPUs in the distribution graph. We have corrected this and should now only show the scores from systems with the correct CPU count.
