Hello people, I have a problem but im not sure if is a problem at all.
I’ve been working in a client project using a macbook pro for two years now.
The project is a rails 2.1.2 app that we are upgrading, it has a lot of tests unit/functional/integration/cucumber
The complete test suite runs slower on a new Dell manchine that on the old Mac. Is that normal?
The specs for the mac are:
2008 macbook pro, lion 10.7.2
8gb ram, 2.53Ghz Core2Duo, 250hd
The specs for the dell are:
New Dell xps 15 (new model that came out this year)
8gb ram, IntelCore™ i7-3632QM, 720hd
It has Ubuntu 12.04 64bit.
I have installed ruby ree with rvm in both laptops
they have the same gems versions managed with bundler
The mac the tests time:
unit
real 9m23.025s
user 3m42.044s
sys 1m40.441s
cucumber
real 13m3.981s
user 8m46.322s
sys 1m24.287s
The dell the tests time:
unit
real 35m4.003s
user 2m52.155s
sys 0m58.388s
cucumber
real 28m54.349s
user 6m32.773s
sys 0m44.751s
Dell times are slow, is there something im missing? is this normal?
