Revision History

pts/encode-ape-1.4.0 [View Source] Sat, 19 Dec 2020 14:50:10 GMT
While this test profile has been deprecated, update against latest open source code so at least it can be downloaded and builds for those who want it.

pts/encode-ape-1.3.1 [View Source] Wed, 07 Feb 2018 12:40:53 GMT
Deprecate the test profile since the source to updated versions is no longer easily available and latest releases appear to be Windows-only.

pts/encode-ape-1.3.0 [View Source] Mon, 06 Dec 2010 14:39:54 GMT
Initial import into OpenBenchmarking.org

Based on OpenBenchmarking.org data, the selected test / test configuration (Monkey Audio Encoding 3.99.6 - WAV To APE) has an average run-time of 2 minutes. By default this test profile is set to run at least 5 times but may increase if the standard deviation exceeds pre-defined defaults or other calculations deem additional runs necessary for greater statistical accuracy of the result.

Based on public OpenBenchmarking.org results, the selected test / test configuration has an average standard deviation of 0.2%.

Does It Scale Well With Increasing Cores?

No, based on the automated analysis of the collected public benchmark data, this test / test settings does not generally scale well with increasing CPU core counts. Data based on publicly available results for this test / test settings, separated by vendor, result divided by the reference CPU clock speed, grouped by matching physical CPU core count, and normalized against the smallest core count tested from each vendor for each CPU having a sufficient number of test samples and statistically significant data.
