The power of the Intel Atom!

Comments (0)
 
Not only am I huge fan of Intel Atom based servers for their awesome performance and low cost but I have an Intel Atom in my home server (Intel Atom 230) and my main PC is my HP Mini 210 netbook (Intel Atom N550). I have a secondary netbook that I use for testing and as a webserver but it's running a VIA C7 CPU which has a little kick to it all things considered.

Well I push my HP 210 to the limit sometimes and while I thought I was doing so just now I found I wasn't.

I installed VMWare Player and was building an Arch Linux VM, while this was building I was watching My Darkest Day's Pornstar Dancing on YouTube in 720p. My WIFI signal is around 80% so I'm jumping between 36-54Mbps and I had to grab about 66MB of SWAP but my CPU load was only around 2.0 which is good considering I have 4 cores (2 physical + HT) so my CPU is only about 50%. I need to get some games on here and see what I can really do with this little 210. :D

Oh, and I've been on battery since I woke up around 5PM and I'm at 35% right now so I'm getting some good battery life out of it considering all of the work I've been doing so far and Zoe got to listen to The Echoing Green on Grooveshark for 3-4 hours when I wasn't on it.
