This should be a fairly good memory/processor test. The test is based on two programs which merely create output and "flow" output at an extremely large rate. 1 GB is produced in all, which may be soon be too little for accurate tests of computer hardware. Also, this test should run produce correct scores whether or not other applications are busy at the same time.
I think I'm going to skip on the graphics tests, unless someone else has an idea. It depends a great deal on the programming technique and algorithms used, and I'm not very interested in evaluating computer performance by forcing all computers to run a poorly-written program.

The scores are produced by the same mathematics as before, with new configuration constants.
A README file isn't included, but the scores themselves are saved into a text file.
If odd behavior is evident, submit the file mempipe.out.log.txt with your score. This log file will only contain data from the most recent test.
Otherwise, submit only the results from mempipe.out.txt. Each new test score will be added to this file.
Open the file "mempipe.command" to run the test. The test should take 10-20 seconds to complete, less on faster machines.

After seeing the previous scores I can't believe my results are for real but here's what I got:
Total time 45. Score is 108.804788989531
QS 933Mhz
Maxtor 120GB HD

The BSD subsystem must have been installed with Mac OS X in order for these tests to run properly. I wonder what is in the log file for your test.
