With Corona 10, we released a new version of the Corona Benchmark app.
The Corona Benchmark is an application based on the Corona 10 rendering core which measures your system performance by rendering a scene with Corona 10 without having to run (or even install) any other software. It can be used to measure how well your system performs when rendering with Corona and you can compare your score with other users’ results to make sure your hardware is running as at its full capacity or just for fun!
Some other uses include:
Comparing what improvements (if any) result from changing something about your hardware, BIOS settings, or Operating System settings
Making an informed decision on what hardware to buy by making sure it gives you a notable performance improvement
Stress testing the machine to make sure that the cooling can keep up with your CPU when it is hard at work (via command console)
IMHO the decision to lock results submission and viewing behind Chaos account, was the worst thing you could do with the new benchmark. Personally for me its usefulness is close to zero now.
The results are visible freely, even without signing in. You can access this page even in incognito mode: Corona 10 Benchmark
You need to sign in to submit your result. One advantage of this is the ability to view and manage all your results. This was not possible with the previous system.
I understand that you may be unhappy about the “gated” solution, but I can’t see how it could be causing “usefulness close to zero”.
I can understand the decision for requiring account to submit benchmark results, but not for viewing them. I was never been able to see user results when signed out. Your link in previous message leads me to the page that can be seen in my attachment, so unless i’m doing something obviously stupid, yes, i still stand by my previous statement.
That’s super strange and unexpected. I can access this page and see the results even in an incognito window. I tried with 2 different browsers: Corona 10 Benchmark
We will definitely look into this.
Now, i can access it too, but that’s the first time i see this table since arrival of new benchmark. Before that it was always redirecting to Chaos account sign-in page.
Looks like there is a browser-related issue here which we didn’t know about. Thanks for letting us know as there are probably other unhappy users who never told us anything!
The issue seems to be quite random, after few successive attempts, i am again got redirected to login page. Hopefully you’ll manage to find what’s causing this and fix the issue for good, it would be nice to be able to see benchmark results from time to time.
Hi.
Can I see somewhere the results of Corona 1.3 benchmark? I’d like to compare some old processors which are not in the Corona 10 benchmark results list.
I found a performance issue with my new build Dual Xeon Platinum 8480+
CoronaBenchmak 1.3 result : 44M rays/s
CoronaBenchmak 10 result : 18M rays/s
as a comparison ,my old build W3175x oc 4.0 all core
CoronaBenchmak 1.3 result : 15M rays/s
CoronaBenchmak 10 result : 11M rays/s
in benchmark 1.3 new build is nearly triper the speed of the old one, but only 1.6 times in benchkmark 10
Hardware Specific:
CPU:Dual Xeon Platinum 8480+
MB: Gigabyte MS73 HB 0
MEM: Skynix DDR5 4800 16G REG ECC *8 per socket
OS: windows 10 22H2 workstation with newest updates
also tried windows 11 workstation same result
BTW, all the other render benchmark tools(like Cinebench R23, Vraybenchmark,Blender) i tested have the expected performance result ,
Why it happened with Coronabenmark 10?
