Age of SuperPi
[edit]So this program is in fact that old? 11 years? I didn't realize that. How come it's still so popular? There must be other programs that do the same in less time. 85.19.140.9 21:30, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
- The popularity is because performance results are comparable with those achieved in the past. It's a continuous process of achieving world records with Super PI. User:IvanAndreevich
Integer or Floating
[edit]I doubt if computations in SuperPi are performed in ALU or FPU. Such high precision couldn't be achieved with floating numbers IMHO. Zuxy 03:45, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
- Agreed. This is an important piece of information for anyone using it as a benchmark. JoaCHIP (talk) 11:23, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
This entry is incorrect
[edit]SuperPI uses Gauss-Legendre algorithm, it says so in its help file. Do some research people. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.105.61.70 (talk • contribs) 17:32, 31 March 2007
