MAXON, the guys behind Cinema 4D, a 3D DCC app commonly used in film
and TV, have released version R10 of their popular Cinebench
application.
The new version stresses CPU and GPU much more than the old 9.x releases, supports x86 and x64 under XP, Vista and Mac (PowerPC and Intel both) and scales to 16 processor cores. From the website:
"The test procedure consists of two main components: The first test sequence is dedicated to the computer's main processor. A 3D scene file is used to render a photo reaslistic image. The scene makes use of various CPU-intensive features such as reflection, ambient occlusion, area lights and procedural shaders. In the first run, the benchmark only uses one CPU (or CPU core), to ascertain a reference value. On machines that have multiple CPUs or CPU cores, and also on those who simulate multiple CPUs (via HyperThreading or similar technolgies), MAXON CINEBENCH will run a second test using all available CPU power.
The second test measures the performance of the graphics card and is run inside the 3D editor window. The project file used can test all graphics cards that support the OpenGL standard. In this scene, only the camera was animated. This scene places medium to low demands on graphics cards and tests the maximum speed with which the scene can be properly displayed."
