Intel Hyperthreading… worth it?
In a recent post, I listed a benchmark using Cinebench R15 on a pair of Xeon Gold 6144 CPU’s. In that post, I mentioned that hyperthreading was enabled. How much of a difference did that make?
To recap, here’s the full 16 physical/32 logical benchmark:
And now, hyperthreading disabled:
And there we go. Hyperthreading adds another 747 points, for an increase of nearly 28%.
Oddly, that goes in line with something I read before where hyperthreading can add up to a 25% increase in performance (on physical hardware). Sadly I can’t remember where I read that, or when.
