php Posted March 11, 2005 CID Share Posted March 11, 2005 could you possibly have three versions of the download test? 1 with the new progress bar, 1 with the old progress bar, and 1 with no progress bar? I like the new progress bar a lot and it doesnt affect my tests, but i have noticed other users having problems with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blako Posted March 11, 2005 CID Share Posted March 11, 2005 I dont like the fact that the new progress bar won't let me use another window during testing. Every refresh of the progress bar makes it go to the top of my screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blako Posted March 11, 2005 CID Share Posted March 11, 2005 I would also like to say that on my slow (730mhz) I see a big difference between the new progress bar and no progress bar.

php Posted March 12, 2005 Author CID Share Posted March 12, 2005 i believe we can come to the conclusion that the computer has a LOT to do with it. i believe everyone who has complained about slow speed with the progress bar has a CPU near or below 1GHz. My P4 HT @ 3.0 GHz peaked at 29% usage once during the test. Most of the time it was between 10-15%. On my old P3 @ 800MHz it peaked at 63%, stayed 48-55%. Note- this is with the new progress bar, so CA3LE did significantly lower the load on the processor during the test. Good job CA3LE! although i wish you could have kept the bar the way you had it with all the info. Oh well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
