Quake3 SMP Benchmarks

1

citizen over at Abuse sends word that he has put together some new benchmarks of a dual CPU machine using the latest SMP code in the v1.07 Q3Test release that came out last night. Here are the results he got in low res:

resolution   r_smp 0    r_smp 1 
640x480 88.1 fps 110.5 fps
800x600 87.6 fps 105.3 fps
1024x768 82.4 fps 90.3 fps

    I can\'t help but question his benchmark results, since Carmack the wise and powerful instituted a 100fps framerate cap in Q3 1.06
