Productivity Suddenly Dropped

It is not hard to check again

I should probably take my words back then

Since my report above had the same info I turned off Cores 1,2,4, and 8 in one work unit for 10 frames. TPF averaged 3.5% LONGER than when all Cores were active running in FahCore_a8.exe. So it appears on my machine, it makes sense to let all ten cores fold, at least with this one WU.

Core Speed Multiplier Bus Speed Temperature Threads
Core 0 2094.1 MHz x 21.0 99.7 MHz 38 °C APIC ID: 0
Core 1 1595.5 MHz x 16.0 99.7 MHz 38 °C APIC ID: 8
Core 2 1495.8 MHz x 15.0 99.7 MHz 38 °C APIC ID: 16
Core 3 2891.8 MHz x 29.0 99.7 MHz 38 °C APIC ID: 18
Core 4 1495.8 MHz x 15.0 99.7 MHz 40 °C APIC ID: 20
Core 5 2891.8 MHz x 29.0 99.7 MHz 38 °C APIC ID: 22
Core 6 2193.8 MHz x 22.0 99.7 MHz 40 °C APIC ID: 32
Core 7 2094.1 MHz x 21.0 99.7 MHz 36 °C APIC ID: 40
Core 8 1794.9 MHz x 18.0 99.7 MHz 38 °C APIC ID: 48
Core 9 2094.1 MHz x 21.0 99.7 MHz 38 °C APIC ID: 56

That's really impressive! I didn't expect E-cores to perform so much better.

I think it would still be more productive to run a 6 thread WU on P-cores and a 4 thread WU on E-cores, but you will actually get less PPD with this setup because of how points system is designed.
