Performance testing
12/23/2006 < Previous Next >
Over the past couple of weeks, we have dived into some serious performance
testing with various hardware configurations. When we're finished, we should
have (at least) three complete levels of hardware that we can recommend for new
computer purchases. The plan is to be more specific with our hardware and system
recommendations for using with SSP which will also be based on how you use
multimedia. We will also be more specific in what capabilities and performance
you should expect given a particular hardware platform. George Taylor, who recently joined the R-Technics team and brings with him a considerable background in testing multimedia computer systems, is working through the tests. He is also working through some issues that have been reported to us through technical support and the user forums.
I expect that along with the recommendations, we will make available to subscribers the slide shows that we are using for the performance tests along with information about how the slide shows were built.
