Installing BRL-CAD, you may run the 'benchmark' tool as well to run The "vgr" line effectively shows youĪpproximately how much faster your machine is to a VAX 11/780.

It's also been compiled on many versions of Linux, BSD, AIX, IRIX, Solaris over the years. Some legacy platforms include the DEC VAX-11 running 4.3 BSD, DECStations running ULTRIX, SGI 4Ds running various versions of IRIX, Sun-3 and Sun-4 Sparcs running SunOS, the Cray 1, X-MP and Y-MP running UNICOS, the Cray 2, DEC Alpha AXP running OSF/1, the Apple MAC II running A/UX, iPSC/860 Hypercube running NX/2, Alliant FX/8, Alliant FX/2800, Gould SEL, PowerNode, the Gould NP1, NeXT, HPPA 9000/700 running HPUX, the Ardent/Stardent, the Encore Multi-Max, and much more. Support for Windows is there too, though it's only recently been a focus of development. Support is presently actively maintained for Mac OS X, Linux, IRIX, and Solaris (*BSD usually just works). It's ran on OS X since the early Public Beta days - the port took me much less time than it's taking me to write this comment.īRL-CAD has a long history of running on many systems that range from your average desktop running Linux to Cray supercomputers fully taking advantage of the CPU resources on any of them. ![]()
