	Post annotated by RainbowChaser : This thread was moved from the category General Discussion. To improve the development process for the sailonline client application, it would be good to know a few things about the systems people use to run SOL on. There are just a few categories of specifications we are inteerested in, so please fill it out and we can hopefully develop the client to better run on the higher end systems, while still being ok on the lower end ones. ************************************** ************************************ To make life easier for all, I found a small free benchmark program that is available for both PC and Mac. Called NovaBench it will reduce things to a few key numbers, and you can simply cut and paste the system specs from the report page. It is approx 11Mb download and tests take about 1-2 minutes. Please Post what you see on result page (you can just select all text, including overall result, and copy & paste - HDD info not necessary). [This also allows better comparison between Win & Mac machines] ************************************ ************************************** Please also indicate, whether your machine is a desktop or laptop, screen resolution and size, and a rough age in years (or < 1) Also your Internet download speed: Use the http://speedtest.net service for 'real-world' results, as often you are not achieving what your ISP claims as their connection speed. Example NovaBench output: NovaBench Score: 287 21/11/2011 10:51:14 AM Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition AMD Athlon 64 X2 4000+ @ 2094 MHz Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce 7300 SE/7200 GS 3072 MB System RAM (Score: 87) - RAM Speed: 1945 MB/s CPU Tests (Score: 182) - Floating Point Operations/Second: 47251978 - Integer Operations/Second: 119100712 - MD5 Hashes Generated/Second: 513754 Graphics Tests (Score: 13) - 3D Frames Per Second: 48 Hardware Tests (Score: 5) - Primary Partition Capacity: 49 GB - Drive Write Speed: 15 MB/s If using this please also highlight the overall score (or include in post) Thanks --- Last Edited by Aaron Gage at 2011-11-21 04:03:02 --- I help develop the client interface for the best online ocean racing sim there is... __/)/)_/)__

The sun is shining (24/7) and not a penguin to be seen, and Skip believes the Norh East Passage is ice-free (sufficiently) to attempt it, so all aboard for a c 4250nm voyage from east to west across the top of Siberia, Russia and Norway to Tromsoe!
