Sept 17: Dual G5 2.0 Results added from eggman in this MacNN forum thread :

Apple PowerMac G5, Dual 2.0 GHz G5, 1 GB DRAM - 4*256 MB PC3200 CL=3, OS X 10.2.7 (G5), Photoshop 7.0.1 (w/ G5 Update installed), Energy Savings Settings: Highest Performance

G5 1.6 Results from jrod7350 in this MacNN forum post

I used a G5 1.6 with 1GB of RAM, ran PSBench7 Advanced (50MB) file, with 1 History state and the Adobe optimization plugin installed.

PC Results from Acehardware

To test Photoshop, we used PS7Bench 1.11, a Photoshop action that runs 21 different operations on Photoshop 7.0 and measures the run time with Adobe's timing feature. We used the PS7Bench "Advanced" benchmark which manipulates a 50 MB image. With Photoshop 7 running, we set 300-340 MB physical RAM memory (out of 512 MB) was used, so disk swapping did occur on occasion, though not often.

G5 1.6 numbers are the average of the three times listed in the MacNN thread. Results are in Seconds.
