The OCUS Benchmark of Pro/E Builds v5

- Last Modified: -

Results of running the OCUS Benchmark v5 with different builds of Pro/E.

I ran the Wildfire 2.0 and Wildfire 3.0 normal version trail files of the v5 benchmark on one computer under the exact same conditions.

The results show how the overall OCUS Benchmark v5 performance of Pro/E Wildfire 3.0 M060 is much better than Wildfire 2.0 M220. (early builds of WF3 had some tests which were much slower but build M060 solved those issues)

And what about memory usage ....


The following graph shows the RAM usage in Mb for each release at startup of Pro/E and at the end of the OCUS Benchmark v5
Wildfire 3.0 uses 6% more memory than Wildfire 2.0.
