AUBenchmark 2011 RESULTS (RST & RMEP)

Please post benchmark results for Revit Structure & MEP 2011 here. We'll keep the New AUBench thread open for discussions, so this one can be a simple archive of results.

Thanks!
Gordon

NOTE: The RST/RMEP benchmark does not implement the Modify Curtain Wall portion of the test. As a result the Render and Export segments of the test are working from a much simpler model and are thus not an apples to apples comparison with those numbers from the RAC benchmark. To indicate the variance these numbers and the totals are flagged with an *. Be aware of this when comparing benchmarks between RAC and RST/RMEP.

Enters "Interactive Mode"

I have an install disk of XP x32 now, and RST & RMEP downloaded. Hopefully this weekend I can do some direct testing on all the different combinations of OS and Revit and see what comes of it.

Well, I am not testing anything on Vista. If you are running that, you have my sympathy!
