What a 3 GHz Processor will do for you

I finally got around to installing Java, Ant and Tomcat today, so here's some compilation numbers for you (from the new laptop):

  • Running "ant clean package-web" on AppFuse: 12 seconds (vs. 2GHz/512MB Desktop: 18 seconds)
  • Running "ant rebuild" on Roller: 24 seconds (vs. 2GHz/512MB Desktop: 36 seconds)

Now those are numbers I like to see! Does that mean that you get a 33% performance increase for every GHz of CPU you add to your machine? The annoying thing I'm experiencing today is that the fan comes on about a minute after it shuts off, and then it stays on. Not a big deal if I've got headphones on, but in cube land (where you can hear each other typing) it's kinda loud. I'm also growing to loath the mouse (same as PowerBook, but two buttons - yeah!) - just b/c it's a laptop mouse (solution: KVM)

In other news, tomorrow is my last day at Comcast. It's been great working here - awesome folks to work with, cool company, very cool project. I'm leaving a week early b/c I got a small contract to write a webapp for a company in Florida. It should only take me a week or so, and I'll be doing it out of Raible Designs' HQ, so it'll be nice to see the fam a bit more. After that - who knows? I have a few irons in the fire (as Russ would say), but nothing is final yet.
