Footnotes

1. "Points": frequency * num cores * time; lower is better, divide the numbers to get relative core speed normalized by frequency. ↩

2. Thermally throttled; 4.5GHz max boost. ↩

3. Core i7 1st gen refresh, Westmere-EP LGA1366 tripple memory channel. ↩

4. Orange Pi 5 RK3588S with 4x Cortex-A76 2.4GHz, 4x Cortex-A55 1.8GHz and a cooling fan attached. Powered by a 5V 2A USB phone charger. ↩

5. Open-air passive cooling time is 821 sec with A55 cores throttled to 1.2-1.4GHz; no frequency data for A76. ↩

6. Would be 7096 seconds at 100% CPU utilization. ↩

7. 8205 seconds of CPU time. ↩
