A new version using Mach absolute time brings accuracy to a few microseconds, and a Help page. Tests progress well, and continue to make interesting comparisons.
benchmarks
Developing an app to assess the real-world performance of SSDs: initial results from a T2 Mac and an M1 Mac mini are different but there’s no simple answer to which is the faster.
A lot safer than racing through the English countryside in the dead of night, and perfectly legal. So why can’t we get a clear answer to how well an SSD performs?
How fast is the internal SSD? Benchmarks range from around 2.7 GB/s up to nearly 20 GB/s. Which are right? Some new figures, in need of more measurements.
How to connect your M1 Mac in Target Disk mode, avoiding an endless restart loop, and how fast to expect it to perform. Plus more on benchmarks.
What were the first things you tried out on a new M1 Mac? Benchmarks, perhaps, or tested battery endurance? Try looking at Recovery Mode – that’s more important.
If you’re working towards this benchmark (or those for earlier versions of macOS), or want to maintain systems to its requirements, I have something to help you.
Is the new Mac mini the best-performing for its cost? Does the new iPad Pro rival better desktop systems in benchmarks? Let’s look at those figures more carefully.
How can my colleague test a new Mac Pro properly, to see whether it will solve his performance problems?
