About this Document

This document is a guide measuring performance of the Intel® Pentium® 4 processor on application software.
The primary audience for this document includes individuals, publications, OEMs and technical analysts
whose goal is to test or evaluate the performance benefits and features of the Pentium 4 processor. If there
are questions that are not answered here on software application performance evaluation of the Pentium 4
processor, please contact your Intel representative.

Each software application test measures different aspects of process or and/or system performance. While no
single numerical measurement can completely describe the performance of a complex device like a
microprocessor or a personal computer, application tests can be useful tools for comparing different
components and systems. The following results and procedures give a glimpse of the performance of certain
software applications, however your own usage of each application may vary from what is shown here. The
only totally accurate way to measure the performance of your system, is to test the actual software
applications you use, in the way you use them, on your computer system. Test results published by Intel are
measured on specific systems or components using specific hardware and software configurations, and any
differences between those configurations (including software) and your configuration may make those results
inapplicable to your component or system.

Software application tests are, at most, only one kind of information that you may use during the purchasing
process. To get a true picture of the performance of a component or system you are considering purchasing,
you must consult other sources of information (such as performance information on the exact system you are
considering purchasing). If you have any questions about the
please view the detailed performance briefs and reports published by Intel or call Intel at (US) 1-800-628­8686 or 916-356-3104.
