Administrator DKT27 Posted January 14, 2011 Administrator Share Posted January 14, 2011 Nice. Will benchmark soon. :) Be aware though, more speed isn't expected, this is more like a version aimed at the gui etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bashar Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 memory usage?i dont know if it's just me but i'm using it for about two hours (keeping it opened )i watched some flash videos on nba.com and i dont see it as memory hog as it was with the previous releases.using it with 12 tabs , process lasso tells firefox uses 10% of cpu , memory around 200Mb .i think they are doing a good job in this beta not to mention html5test showed the same exact points 207 as beta 8 (chrome scored about 244)Good job Mozilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mara- Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 This beta feels indeed faster. Previous was somehow sluggish. There is even slight improvements in benchmark. But they still didn't fix the damn font with Direct 2D enabled! :angry:Benchmark attached.Cheers ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator DKT27 Posted January 14, 2011 Administrator Share Posted January 14, 2011 It performed bad (even this time). I believe it's my CPU which starts to throttle because of heat, that's why it's scoring less in mine. Here's the benchmark:Please note that I wont benchmark the RC. There's still Beta 10 to release though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mara- Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Well, first time I also got lower score, and second time I got it as you see it. It's interesting to see that Opera is top in your benchmark, where Chrome is on mine. And why wouldn't you benchmark RC?Cheers ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator DKT27 Posted January 14, 2011 Administrator Share Posted January 14, 2011 I tested it two times, and on the third time, it was too sluggish to let complete. Blame my CPU's heat.About RC, well, I feel I shouldn't test RC, I believe RC will overwrite the Firefox installation, and I don't want to use it until it's officially final. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mara- Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Just change installation folder, and it won't overwrite, since it's different version number. What's up with the heat? Fan broken on CPU?Cheers ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator DKT27 Posted January 14, 2011 Administrator Share Posted January 14, 2011 Somehow I feel I shouldn't test RC. Let my excitement rise a little. :DAbout fan, well nothing much, by heatsink paste has dried and the Intel fan is not so great to handle my needs, that's why waiting for my engineer about what happened to the Cooler Master Cooler I had asked him to inquire about. More info here. :)BTW, have you installed this update to solve the blur fonts problem? I read some of the MozDev saying that this is a problem from M$ side. :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HX1 Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Some times.. in a normal setup.. Cool air in to fan ...blowing and channeled into..( usually with plastic tunnel or guard ) then cpu fan to pushing hot air out ( away from ) and circulating cool air on radiator.. The fan on top of the CPU can be turned around backward... and mounted either way.. It doesn't seem to make sense ( to most ) as to why it would be mounted the right way.. so many mount it backward blowing air into.. forces ( through Kinetics.. warmer temps into the board surrounding the chip and is actually hotter and less stable than it should be.. I dropped the temps on my mom and dads system quite a bit and it maintained those temperatures more readily after flipping it over.. I tested it both ways to be sure.. and depending on how you have it setup..it may work for a better point of stability.. the other way.. this is on a HP box.. old one..Sort of a hard one to explain.. the tunnel and rate of force ( plus size of fan ) blowing onto the board.. then the small fan blows away or into the airflow.. because of the way it is setup .. the smaller fan pulls cooler air into the side of the radiator and circulates cooler air while the heat it being pulled out and away from everything.. Other cool air on the sides actually works to cool the board.. instead of warmer air..Then I found there PSU fan had stopped.. casing weird reboots.. oiled the fan got it to work and found that the vent holes which allow any other heat to escape from the box were covered .. pointed them down to allow it to escape and now it doesn't climb above 23 C ( 73 F )and about 40 - 46 C for the hard drive.. but its stable without huge climbs and such.. ( those numbers I just took from it.. but I watched it originally for about a week ) Before the temps would spike dramatically... and the PSU would get too hot as well..

( those numbers I just took from it.. but I watched it originally for about a week ) Before the temps would spike dramatically... and the PSU would get too hot as well..I see. Well my base temp in BIOS is 69C (with heatsink dry of course). And I may or may not do any overclocking in future. So this cooler method seems to me as the cheap and suitable method to me. Now just pray my engineer says that model is available. :beg:Well, we are going off topic. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mara- Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Yes, I have that update, I got it via Windows Update.About fan: Your paste is bad. But maybe not all Intel fans and sinks are good. I had similar issue when I had some 1-core CPU, but on the current processor I have really great fan and sink which is Intel stock. As you can see in my signature, I overclocked my CPU to 2.6, and I when I stress-tested it I couldn't get it over 60 C, so I got feeling that I can overclock even more.Cheers ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
